Installing Slackware Without Hardware Synthesizer

[John G Heim]

One more thing that might be worth considering is a serial console 
install.  This would probably be way easier than manually reproducing 
the steps performed by the slackware installer. you'd need another 
computer and a null-modem cable. Oh,and both machines have to have 
serial ports.
Tip: Null-modem cables are a glut on the market in used computer stores. 
New, they are about $5. But there is no reason to pay more than a dollar 
for one of those thingsat a used computer store.

You could enter into a distro already installed on your machine, then take the contents of the installation image and put each piece of software in its own place. More exactly, if you know a little of shell script, you could start reading the installer source code and manually reproduce what it does.
