What to do next? The quick explanation : Extract the ISO file. The detailed explanation : 1 - Extract the content of the Slackware ISO file somewhere on your hard drive.
You should get a bunch of folders and text files, that from now on I will call "ISO extract". If you like well-written documentation, you are going to love Slackware. Don't forget to connect the other drive if also needed. Thanks again. Maybe one config change for some updated package prevented me from having sddm login screen and only slackware init 3 level login prompt. As a workaround, I logged in with my user name and run: startx from shell.
I am learning a lot, and I installed some pakages… I like how responsive is my laptop is with this liveslak. And since the Slackware default is to boot into runlevel 3, this is what you are now experiencing. All the add-ons that make liveslak into the Live distro are not copied onto your harddisk.
I looked first into Slackware about 2 or 3 years ago, and read something then That gave me the idea that installing it would sort of like installing Arch Linux or Gentoo, which still are a bit above my experience level. Then I found Absolute Linux, but the support information I found was not the best for me, I once nuked the 6 OSs I had in one of my older machines when trying to install it.
But I liked the layout of Absolute and kept looking at it and even trying it eventually a few more times. But i never was able to install it successfully along my other Linus distributions. So i began looking att Live Slak and I am really amazed at the clarity and friendliness of is design and of the instructions and answers you provide. I wil read a little more and go back-. But I felt you deserved my recognition for your work. Well thanks for your story, Wan. I hope liveslak turns out to be a nice introduction to a real Slackware system installed on your hard drive.
Kudos to the ongoing efforts to maintain this distro. I have never used Debian and will probably never try it either. So I must ask you to check the specifics of what is happening there. I am assuming you know how to work on the Linux commandline if you use Debian.
Have you tried creating another directory i. I did create another mount directory and sda1 also failed to mount giving the same error. The only references I saw of it in the dmesg output is as follows:. Opts: null [ Opts: null. Is that partition part of a logical volume LVM?
If so you must initialize LVM first. Your email address will not be published. Notify me of follow-up comments by email. Notify me of new posts by email. This site uses Akismet to reduce spam.

Step 2: transferring the content of the ISO to your USB stick This is the easy part, as it has been documented extensively in earlier blog articles. Any terminal will do. In the terminal, switch user to become root. Examples: '-c M', '-c 1. No formatting, do not touch user content. Good luck! Like this: Like Loading Cheers, Didier. Thank you very much for your time and your effort. If yes, I have fun for the weekend: install Slackware current with Plasma5 in this machine.
Best regards. Eric I was wondering how long does it take to complete the setup2hd? Hey Alien, thanks for the article. The forum seems to suggest installing BCD version 2.
Thanks again for your help. Could you possibly suggest an alternative program? Assuming such a program exists. Thank you. Nick, no. Your best bet is to find support for your EasyBCD problem. So, the trade-off is speed versus persistence. Some comments and suggestions: 1 This blog entry regarding Grub2 to use live slack from disk is very important, please include this info in docs.
I left my testing process at this point last night. Any hint or advice? If we create a persistence image it is read only if we delete dirty flag I am aware that scrits establish reading mode on hard drives to avoid damage in live mode. Just to let you know about my progress using slackware: 1 I used liveslak with encrypted persist, and updated several times my USB with your new releases.. Thanks Eric for all this huge effort and excelent and outstanding work.
Best Regards, francisco. Slackware includes a usbboot. In the same directory one can also find usbimg2disk. Microsoft Windows or Linux. This document describes yet another way of creating an image capable of booting from USB, containing all of the packages neeeded for an installation, using Isohybrid.
That may be the tree of a stable release, or even the tree of the Slackware current development cycle. If you choose to use a local copy of the tree you should be able to create your own ISO image using a script such as:.
