a little history
- slackware on arm started by stuart winter in 2002
- became an official port of slackware in 2009
- lots of info at the video podcast on youtube
why choose slackware
- can do minimal installs easy
- education
- stable and secure
who should avoid slackware
- unwilling or unable to read and follow directions
- if you think your leet when you use apt instead of apt-get
- if you think commands like dd are 'scary'
howto
- there is no official port of slackware arm to raspberrypi
- i think this is because of raspberrypi has a non standard way of booting compared to most arm devices
- community has stepped in
on the slackware documentation project website there are 'manual' install projects
- took a while, had to download firmware from the raspberrypi project itself
- quite a bit of cleanup
- this is the guide if you want slackware on a pi-zero
link to the sarpi project
- guy named phil project lead, started in 2012
- the sarpi project is also a manual process
- even if you don't do this you should look at the website content, this is the way to do a tutorial
- after you download the sources this install is exactly like any other slackware install
- when you get to the package selection its easy to customize
after install
- you have a complete development environment
- be prepared to up your search foo
- many packages can be built from slackbuilds
The only mistakes you can't learn from are, your own fatal mistakes
