 The official way to do this is, of course, to get it from [[https://www.slackware.com/getslack/|slackware.com]].

+===== Slackware Installer ISO Image =====
 I no longer need an ISO image (refer to USB installer below). But, I have my [[https://codeberg.org/azman/my1shell/src/branch/master/slack2iso|slack2iso]] script (also based on Alien Bob's script) that can help in creating one using the tree downloaded by ''getslack''.
