My thoughts are to give an introduction to the distro, hit some of the high
points of the install process and go into some of the post install
configuration. I might cover license issue since not all the packages are GPLed.

I'm rather new to Slackware so haven't worked with the package management system
yet. Maybe I will have by then.
