   Okay:   
      
   !. Get a USB flash drive that can hold the Slackware.iso   
   Using Gparted make a DOS partition table on the USB flash drive, format   
   it fat32 and make boot flag.   
      
   2. Open file manager where the down loaded slackware.iso is and Ctrl+F4   
   to open console where the .iso is, now # md5sum slackware.iso to check   
   the md5sum   
      
   3. Put USB flash drive into computer and # fdisk -l to get name of the   
   "unmounted" USB flash drive   
      
   4. dd bs=4M if=slackware.iso of=/dev/sdb   
   In the above use the real name of the .iso and the real name of the   
   flash drive, don't mess up the spacing and hit the enter key   
      
   5. Make sure your BIOS is set to boot the USB drive, boot flash drive   
   and install Slackware. As long as the USB flash drive is not corrupted   
   you can reuse it.
