But you can install any of the regular slackware packages after you
install zipslack. So really, all that needs to be in zipslack is the
basic system plus networking. Once networking is up, you can grab
any of the other packages you want and run pkgtool or installpkg to
install them. It doesn't really make sense to add more, because
you're assuming which people want, and making the single .zip file
bigger.
