  I had more issues getting Ubuntu running than I ever did Slackware, TBH.

  I don't have the answers but I highly recommend going to the official  
  Slackware forum on linuxquestions.org and asking there.  Patrick hangs out  
  there.  You'd probably get a quicker and more firm answer to your questions  
  there.  
    
  I've used ESXi but only for Windows Server installs.
