Slackware help


I want to install Slackware Linux onto either floppy disks or CD-RW, so as to create to portable convenient linux distribution. Is it possible to do so?? If so, please teach how to do so. Thanks

haven't read the linked page completely, and I've never tried rolling my own before but this looks like it might be of some help...

Or visit Slackware Live. They've already got a nice CD based Slackware distro. Knoppix probably has a few more goodies, but Slackware Live is a nice, solid live CD. I've booted several computers with it and it does as good a job as Knoppix at configuring the system.

They also have instructions on rolling your own live CD.
