yeah, I just saw that it's out...whoo hoo(said in a depressed, sarcastic tone). I'm still running 2.2.16. I built 2.4.5, but it didn't offer me anything that my current kernel didn't. of course, I'm running at least a year back, as far as my hardware goes.

That "newbie" installation was just plain torture

hehehe...it does require user input. I also recommend the first kernel compile be with a "make config"....that's real torture.
try something like:
mount /dev/hdd /cdrom
it should detect the ISO 9660 filesystem and mount it...if not, send the "-t iso9660" arguement. then cd to the package series directory....
cd /cdrom/slakware
then cd to the package series a1-y1 that you want to install from.....I wouldn't suggest installing much from a1 on a running system, that's the base system.
when you get there, use installpkg to install a single package, or use "pkgtool" and choose the from the current directory.
