Slackware64-Current

I have been working on rebuilding Slackware64 Current on my Blackbird.
Its mostly there now, though a few applications are having some issues that need sorted.
I also need to find a place to host the packages.

I'm trying to sort out the boot requirements for creating an install image.
I understand Petitboot does a scan and is supposed to auto detect OSes.

What specifically is it scanning for?
Is there info somewhere on what needs to be setup for it to detect the installed OS?

If it's visible to GRUB, it should be visible to Petitboot.

Nice job on the port!

Thank you, I figured it was something like that.

Grub is one of the packages that keeps erroring on build.
I'll have to work on getting that one working.

I think if you can crack that nut, you should be there. This delights me personally; Slackware was my first taste of Linux in 1998-ish (on an old 486 we christened "calvin").

Slackware? Thank you very much for your effort!

I used the Slackware in the past (on intel and amd64 systems) and still thinking about return to it. It would be great to have it on my Blackbird...
