Hi,
I couldn't find anything about Nero from you first link, even scrolling to end of page. I just got an introduction to Kali Linux (Lesson 1: installation). Also, to burn an ISO image from Microsoft Windows I would rather recommend:
I remind that the ISO DVD Images for Slackware version 14.1 (32-bit as well as 64-bit) are hybrid: in other words they can be used to make a bootable DVD as well as a bootable USB drive. I should write that in SlackDocs, but feel free to overtake me. PS To check the cryptographic hash vales (SHA1 and MD5) on Windows one can also use FCIV from Microsoft. |

Hi,
Thanks! I corrected the link for the Windows burn tutorial. I recommend that new user do read the available documentation for Slackware that is on the DVD. |

Hi,
We have been having a lot of drive by help desk type queries here at LQ. Jeremy & LQ members have been attempting to address this issue by composing; http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...#faq_lqwelcome Even in the Slackware forum there have been this type of query by new users. Hopefully referring those users to the FAQ link above will help those new members to help us help them. So please refer that link when you feel necessary so we can address the on-going issue with drive by post(s)/threads that sometimes lack information or poorly written. Hope this helps. Have fun & enjoy! :hattip: |

Hi,
For members who are not aware of the the Flashplugin updates for Slackware by Alien_Bob; http://www.slackware.com/~alien/slac...-plugin/pkg64/ & http://www.slackware.com/~alien/slac...er-plugin/pkg/ You will need these plugins for the arch in use be it x86_32 or x86_64. Hope this helps. Have fun & enjoy! :hattip: |
Where to go from here?
'man bash' is friendlier (and more helpful) than this thread. I'd vote to remove the sticky and the prickly mod in one swoop. |
@certainquirk: I would have expected a constructive and friendly message after more than two silent years.

@Didier:
This has nothing to do with me. This is about an 8 yr old, cumbersome thread posing as helpful (sticky) and a mod with a blown fuse. |

UPDATE (so as not to add yet another post) @certainquirk - So without answering any questions or providing usefull discussion, you continue to troll and stir muck (post 434), baiting others for a response and blaming them, the responses, for the useless posts. If you just want to pi$$ down someone's back, please find another place to do it, it is absolutely not appreciated here. |
Slackware ... whaaatt??!? No thx! Its 21 century!

Did you post this only to illustrate the growing problem of drive-by posts with no useful content? Please follow and read the helpful link in onebuck's post above. If you don't want to use Slackware then by all means... go some place else, and good luck. But please refrain from polluting the information sources used by those who do use Slackware, including this very useful and frequently referenced thread... |

How many useless new posts in the last hour now? (Without counting the useless retorts there will be to this one?)
How many times have the same 10 or so links been posted in the last 400+ posts? How many of those posts are the mod attacking someone for pointing out the obese and repetitive nature of the thread? How many others are those who chime in with deflections and all other sorts relevance fallacies? How long have I spent on this thread that I could have been doing dependency checking? All rhetorical questions, of course. Have a good day! :) |
