-====== Slackware ARM 14.2 ====== 
- 
-Slackware ARM has commonly been referred to as the "soft float port". 
-This is only important in so much as one is unable to perform an in-place upgrade from 14.2 to any newer release of Slackware due to: 
-* The ABI is incompatible with all newer releases.  In simple terms, this means that you cannot use packages from 14.2 on anything newer, and vice versa. 
-* Support for the older armv5-only (such as "Plug" devices) hardware end with 14.2, as these cannot be supported by newer versions of Slackware, due to the change in ABI (the ARMv5 hardware does not have a hardware floating point processor). 
- 
-The Soft Float port goes back to Slackware v11.0, but the "Officially supported" versions listed below are the versions currently maintained (receiving updates/patches). 
- 
-Note: Slackware ARM 14.2 will cease to be maintained following the release of 15.0.  As of November 2018, we have no end of support date.
