Hi, Jay:
I have installed slackware from diskettes created from the SLACKWARE CDROM.
I have 'XCOPY CDROM:\slakware\*.* SPARE_HARD_DRIVE:\slackware\/s"
and then installed from that hard drive partition.
Ya gotta have a computer with a CDROM drive available to use that Slackware
CD. Describe the system with the CDROM drive you are going to use and the size
of the hard disk(s) in the 80486's. Oh, what version of Slackware ?
Regards, Chuck
