Hey guys, help out some of us people who dont live in the US. If you find a website or ftp server with the slackware 8.1 ISO, post the link here for us. The main server is dead (just about)
The ftp.rez-gif.supelec.fr server on the list has an incomplete copy of the ISO, don't bother with it. As far as I can tell the UCLA mirror matches. Hopefully it will make sum when I'm done.
Tomorrow, if I don't get swamped at work, I'll put up a short term mirror from about 2pm-midnight EST on a T-1 pipe. My image cut fine and made md5sum, I'm installing from it now. E-mail me if you want the IP address, but as I'm beholden to a dhcp server there, I won't be able to reply until after I log in for the day.
