This is an old revision of the document!


Hi, nice article, I just struggled with your note concerning lilo. The first part I think I got it (lilo can't handle big kernel files), but the last part of the 2nd part seems obscure to me. What do you mean by “perform[ing] a standard installation from a CD […]” ? That there is a recovery option in the install of Slack ?
PS: I changed almost all <code> tags to <code bash> tags. Tell me if that's ok. Because slashes in green are kinda funny.
