Thread: Slackware

Ubuntu is too "I'll take care of myself" for me.

I need a more hardcore Linux. Slackware is that. Problem:

Uh...what do I download? ISO 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6? And I have no DVDs.

I like how you want some hardcore OS, and then you go on to ask a forum, that merely has one tech related sub-sub-forum, for help on how you should start.

I was aiming at Ynot. I'm sure he's used this before.

I love how you call it "some hardcore OS", implying you have know idea what it is, then you criticize me about it.

Dude, you said it was hardcore. I assumed you had some idea what you were talking about.

I do know what I'm talking about, but there are no explanations as to what easch ISO is for. One might have an installer, kernel, and other layers for Slack, and another might have programs and extensions, I honestly don't know.

I wish they explained.

That should give you an idea of what to download, I think.
