| The beginner's guide to Slackware Linux |
|---|
Slackware is a curious animal, minding its own business while other distros roam the popularity plain and strive for dominance among their peers. It's not trying to win enormous desktop market share, nor is it loaded with blinking lights, hold-your-hand graphical wizards and package managers that change with every release. Slackware is about as pure a GNU/Linux system as you can get – at least, without all the arduous leg work of Linux From Scratch. There are many reasons why Slackware has a devoted base of hardcore fans, usually Linux old-timers but occasionally newcomers too.
