First, I'm going to assume there is a cdrom you can boot from, hoping
this is a laptop..
I have a laptop with only a 300 mb hard drive and 16 megs of ram, so I
know this works...
I booted with the slack 8 cd using the 'bare245.i' kernel ( when it asks
for options, just type that in.. or hit F1 then F2 to see the other
choices) setup all the partitions on the master drive (your pc-ide card)
next type setup..
Select target drive and let it format them, I chose reiserFS,
then it asks what packages you want, I chose a1, ap1, and N=20
then chose which packages in each disk series I wanted..
Most of A, a few from ap1, and a couple from N..
And I was done.
It installs lilo, reboots and your all set.
I only used 43 megs.(firewall system)
And I tried again for a command line workstation and did it sufficiently
with 105 megs or so.
You have a lot of flexibility with the slack install.
