I would say that it's virtually impossible.  I last used Slackware around
version 3.x.  The biggest issue (at least compared to Slack 3.x) is that
Mandrake has completely different layout of key files.  People on this list
have enough problems UPGRADING from 6.1 or 7.0 of Mandrake.

Not the answer you wanted to hear, but...
