Perhaps, the parts showing Slackware installation output should be wrapped in the code tags (or something similar). It doesn't read well. Especially the Booting the installer section. For a new user it might not be clear whether it's the author's comment or the installer output. — sycamorex 21/08/2012 21:59


Please pay attention to create all pages copied from the Slackware Book in the slackbook: namespace… not in the “slackware:” namespace

Would it not be better to create a fdisk example with sectors? — Whiz 25/08/2012 00:02

Real screenshots?

Wouldn't it be a good idea to use real screenshots instead of B&W images? Maybe with VirtualBox? — Harishankar 2012/08/25 22:57

Image sizes better now, thanks to mfillpot — Brian Lawrence 2012/08/26 04:36


Created screenshots in media manager Slackware:images would like comments. — Whiz 26/08/2012 15:09

Good work! I see only one colour screenshot currently but it's bright and crisp. — Harishankar 2012/08/26 08:13
Will you be replacing all of the screenshot with full color images on the page as they are created or just dumping them into the media manager until all images are ready? — mfillpot 2012/08/26 12:04
