There ought to be a way to 'upgrade' to Slackware-8.1 or -9.0
on a system with no bootable CDROM device. There is a
/slackware/
directory that can be copied, but where is the 'setup' application?

I've created slackware-8.1-iso & slackware-9.0-iso CDROMs.
I have exhausted attempts to use them as install media
while booting from a single floppy.
There ought to be a way to copy files from the CDROM to
an existing hard drive partition (root file system). Then

Howdy, y'all:
I want to run a script monthly.
(update my dynamic DNS account)
I (as 'root') ran 'crontab -e' and added this line:

/share/dyndnsup.txt
This seems to be the syntax indicated by 'man crontab'.

Hi, Hal:
I downloaded slackware-9.0-install.iso and burned a CD.
The resultant CD boots on two of three computers that I
tried it on. I suggest going to the above URL and downloading
the iso image. Here is a mirror that seems close to me:

Uh, huh. But I have always simply used the boot floppy and then
compiled my own kernel later. :-|

Hmmm, it is plain to see that Richard gave you good advice.

'-f' is 'output only these fields'

Howdy, Y'all:
Using 'grep' I've parsed some stdout to lines ending in

How can I either:
extract the last 17 characters
all characters after the first "("
all characters from "(" to ")"

I tried
