Having installation problems.
Code:
root@slackware:/# dhcpcd eth0 After I run setup, what option do I choose? Do I format the drive? Do I add swap? Do I mount/unmount etc... IDK, I'm pretty much stuck at the setup screen. It seems even using a full version 14.2 beta, tag files are not working. I have followed steps 1-6 and can't go any further |

First, why post a message below an old thread and not open a new one? It would be easier if you used this forum correctly. Second, it looks like you have never used Slackware. MLED is intended for mid-level to advanced Linux users with a bit of Slackware experience. If you have never dealt with Slackware, MLED is not (yet) for you. From the MLED Docs page: Quote:

Why start a new thread? To get the same response I just got? I have used slackware in the past on an older computer. Your response does NOT help me at all. When I get to setup the installer can't find the tag files. You telling me to go play around with it does NOT help me find the tag files. People like you I despise, because you give a little to the community and think you can spit in their face. You tell me to go play like I'm a kid or something. A simple try this command or try that command could save me or others time. Apparently I have not been the only one with this issue. Your instructions are very vague. The crazy thing, is you tell me in another thread to post here, just to tell me to go play. FOH You can go sit on your MLED until something ruptures. Thank you for your help.
The “custom” and “tagpath” options should only be used by people with the greatest skill and expertise with Slackware. These methods allow the user to install packages from custom tagfiles. Tagfiles are only rarely used. We won't discuss them in this book. |

If you're still interested to know why your installation failed. From the mini ISO page: Quote:
Should you use the standard Slackware DVD, the MLED installation guide would work. At least that's my experience. |

@ gegechris99 I have downloaded the Full ISO 32BIT Slackware 14.1. Once I get to the point where I'm stuck, I'll see if you can guide me. Thanks for your attempt to help. |
Here's a couple suggestions.
As far as I'm concerned, I have a zero-tolerance policy for trolls in this forum or on the mailing list. |
You won't leave well enough alone. You are not helping weirdo. I don't care if I get banned. F##K you with a capitol F. You constantly attacking me and mods want to give me warnings. All the time you have spent not helping was a waste. You say I'm trolling, but you are commenting on ALL Caps in my user name which irrelevant. If I could tear you a new one without the mods stalking me along with yourself, you would be on bed rest in ICU.

Can you please stop stalking me? You have not provided any solutions to my problem. I have quoted another member who had the same issue and it wasn't resolved. I have read in the forums and haven't found a solution. If you can't help fix my problem, then there is no need you posting behind me every chance you get.
