Slackware provides several different means of installing the
|
|
software. The most popular is installing from an MS-DOS partition
|
|
on your hard drive; another is to install from a set of MS-DOS
|
|
floppies created from the disk sets that you downloaded.
|
|
<P>
|
|
If you have Slackware on a CD-ROM, you can install the files
|
|
directly from there. The Slackware Pro distribution, from
|
|
Morse Telecommunications, allows you to install Slackware so
|
|
that many files are accessed directly on the CD-ROM. This can
|
|
save a great deal of space on your hard drive, with the tradeoff
|
|
that running certain applications will be slower.
