Setting my computer up to be a dual-boot system. Someone mail me slackware please.
I need to conserve my bandwith, sorry.
Installing Ubuntu right now (still want Slackware). Didn't remember my 5.1 install disk was corrupt until after it was installed, hehe. (I'm on my Mac right now)
Why don't you try FreeBSD? The barebones .iso is only about 50mb. From there, you can download/install everything you want over FTP, so you don't have to download anything you don't want.
Alright. Seeing as how my Googling skills really suck, proven by my last endevor into FreeBSD, could you link me? ^_^
www.freebsd.org
I think there's a download link or something on their main page.
Thanks iago.
I just totally killed my computer. Windows = corrupt. Who would have guessed that would happen? =/.
I don't know where my Windows disk is. ALL OUT LINUX! ALL OUT LINUX!
I'll mail you winXP/slackware/freebsd/ubuntu 5.10 if you want.
Yet you always endup crawling back! 5 weeks tops.

I lasted well over 5 weeks last time.
I have the FreeBSD disk burned, ready to install. Waiting on my slow-as-molases-in-January network to finish transfering the stuff I salvaged from my disk, then installing.
Haha, I have a dual-boot Windows XP / Slackware 10.2 right now. However, my windows partition is fucked++ and restarts itself, drops from the internet every 5 minutes. And I've figured out how to get everything running how I want it on linux. So, I'm all out linux too. :P
Go Krazed! You rock.
I'm all out UNIX, as soon as I get this damned installer to work.
@Krazed: That sounds a lot like you've got your hands on blaster. =p
That FreeBSD installer is evil. It tried to make me download a ton of stuff. I downloaded the base package, which was 60MB, and then it started downloading doc, which was when I said "screw it" and put my Ubuntu disk in.
That said, at the risk of double-posting a third time in this topic, hello from Linux.

Start the slack download and go on vacation, it'll be worth it when you get back.
I'm actually prefering debian-based right now, for the sheer convience of apt.
Yeah, I know Slackware is pretty sweet, I've used it before.
apt is just lazy
I know. But I don't have a beard, and don't want to walk through 10 feet of snow uphill both ways. I'm LAZY AND PROUD!
Sorry, that was stupid.
I'll be all out Linux as soon as SIDOH MAILS ME THE CABLE.

Hahahaha. Just troll him "GIVE ME MY CABLE" in every thread he posts in. He can't forget this way!
