Hi,
I will continue until a cease & desist.
If someone predates my usage and requests then of course the removal or modifications would be performed.

onebuck,
I distribute 65 Linux remasters from my site LINUX.EXTON.NET. About five of them are remasters of Slackware. One is called Exton-Slack and another Exton-MiniSlack. Is that a "violation" too in your world? (I don´t think Patrick Volkerding cares).

I have tried your latest livecd kit. I get the following error messages:
1. Cannot read module data. Corrupted download?
2. Cannot create union/usr/lib: path does not exist.
3. Can´t find executable chroot command.
I e when I try to boot my remaster (live dvd) using your kernel.

It not just me. Read the ' COPYRIGHT.TXT'. If PV didn't care then no such document or registration of the Trademark & Copyright for Slackware would have been done.
To be openly flagrant about breaking laws doesn't make it right. As for policing, I believe in honesty and being upfront with things is the proper way. If it's not right then the means to correct something should be performed by everyone instead of looking the other way.

thats crazy, 65 distros?
lol
you gotta make a english web page too
what lang is that?
Note to Onebuck;
you will actually find many "slackware based" livecd's, etc at Slax forum
as the intent of Tomas of Slax in creating Live Live was so one
could create their own slackware based derivative; as LLS doesn't usually work with other distros except maybe LFS

I believe PV supports and agrees with Slax. But to use the Trademark & Copyright for Slackware without authorization is wrong.

Well I did it like this:
1. Installed your kernel (the txz)
2. Rebooted with the new kernel
3. Used live cd scripts 6.3.0.
My guess is that the errors are connected to the fact that /lib/modules/2.6.34/kernel/fs/aufs is missing.

ahh
what linux live 6.3.0?
the one that comes with kit or original linux live?
aufs is builtin, not module
So, to be clear golfer7, did you just manually install my kernel and then use regular lls?

I used original Linux live scripts. So you have modified lls using aufs as built in? I will try with your version then.
Seems to be my mistake. I should have read your instructions...
