Where to download Slackware?


Hi, i lost my Slackware64 DVD somewhere. Im looking to install it again, but I really dont want to download the whole DVD. Does Slackware make an install CD? For 64 bit? I just want KDE and I will take it from there. If they do have it, anyone know where to get it. It seems slackware.com continues to be down.

Grab AlienBOB's Slackware64 13.37 mini ISO (25Mb). Do a network install and pick a mirror (there are lots listed in this thread). Then you can pick only the packages you want.

Useful sticky but where to get torrents? I could not find torrent files following any of the links in this thread (was looking for 13.37 32-bit DVD).

Yes, sorry, there does seem to be a dearth of CD torrents available come to think of it.

FYI, Eric posted the link for the torrents in the top sticky thread.
