Filenames for installation of Slackware 15.0 on SARPI site


Just a silly question :

Why the installation files for Slackware 15.0 on SARPI site have these curious
filenames "sarpi4-installer_slack15.0_N/A_sp1.img.xz" with this string "N/A" ?

Probably because those files do not appear to actually exist.

Just FYI... The SARPi entries for the Slackware ARM 15.0 (32-bit) downloads have been changed and point to files available for downloading instead of the previous placeholders. Entries have been updated for RPi4, RPi3, and RPi2. Thanks Exaga!

... not forgetting the RPi (1) too

Over the past month or so I've had more than a few emails, messages, and comments from users who still want to use the SARPi shizzle. So, especially for officially unsupported RPi devices, it's a good idea to maintain some element of support for the time being. Plus it's not at all easy right now to buy, or upgrade to, a RPi4 with the market and availability being in such a poor state. For officially supported devices users should install and run the Slackware ARM software that Stuart creates and distributes.
