Linux Install Question

[Bill Gaughan]

Hi, Rodney,

You have to download the .iso image to burn an installable cdrom of
slackware linux 8.0 the file is called install.iso. the url to get it is:

http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/slackware/isos/

the two other files, extra.iso and source.iso, you don't need them unless
you want them. to be sure you got everything, I would redownload the iso
image install.iso.
