I'm looking at installing RH51 here. However, the notebook doesn't have a
CD-ROM drive or network card, although I do have a parallel cable. Are
you saying that if I installed Slackware (with the networking package) from
floppy, I would be able to access the CD-ROM drive off of a RH51
installation?
If so, is it possible to 'install' from there, and 'replace' Slackware?
