BigSlack
New with Slackware 7.0 is BigSlack - another special edition of
Slackware Linux. BigSlack is similar to ZipSlack in that it is
designed to be installed to a FAT filesystem, without the need to
repartition your drive to get the benefits of running Slackware
Linux.
The main difference in BigSlack and ZipSlack is what's included.
BigSlack includes the majority of a full Slackware install -
including a preconfigured X Windows setup and GNOME. As such, it
takes much more space than ZipSlack, requiring about 850 megs of
free space.
BigSlack is ideal for people who have the hard drive space to
spare, are looking to try out a full Slackware Linux installation,
but do not want to repartition their hard drive.
