[olug] slackware help?

[neal r]

  I came to the installfest with a small laptop and 80 meg drive and
went away to try Trinux.org's distro again. After much frustration I'm
just going to follow their lead and create my own Slackware based system
to do what I need (wireless monitoring using http://www.soekris.com
machines).


  I've got 8.1 on CD and I made a boot disk using bare.i but now it
wants a root disk and that is nowhere in sight - anyone know what the
next step is?
