You can always do it the very ancient way... get a bunch of stiffies &
take it with your CD to a windows/dos or anything else machine with a
cdrom drive.
Rawrite your install disks then copy all the
.../slakware/[a1..ap1...n1...etc] dirs to a stiffy each & do a floppy
installation
lots of work, but it if you feel up to the challenge...
