hehe. then it wouldn't be a slack install. i also did my own "lfs distro"
for an old pc i used to have. quite a neat experience. but my goal is to get
slack (not my own distro) working on a mac and getting an installer going.
easy enough task, i believe since all the packages are there. i have the
slack source cd-rom so i'll simply compile all the packages for that on my
iMac. i'll use the bootloaders that are on the YDL discs and edit them to my
needs. it's a fairly straightforward process. any that are interested in
participating lemme know.
