Slackware minimal

[ink3]

Hello
I install slackware from cd1.
I have some packages and installed it "installpkg --root /place /packages"
place is mount partition on disk (/dev/sda3)

I have 3 partitions:
/boot - /dev/sda2
swap /dev/sda1
/ /dev/sda3

chroot /place /bin/bash

I have package lilo, but I don't have /etc/lilo.conf
I create it.

Code: Select all

lba32
boot = /dev/sda
prompt
timeout = 50
changes-rules
reset
image = /boot/vmlinuz
root = /dev/sda3 (it's ok?)
label = Linux
read-only


What configuration files or something I will need to install minimal Slackware?

I don't understand the question. What do you mean "what configuration files or something"? If you installed slackware from CD1, you already have everything that slackware needs to start the system. That includes a lilo.conf, that is you didn't refuse to run liloconfig at the end of installation.

sorry. here better explained what I mean:

I don't understand better with this post. What is the link between your two posts ?

Okay. One more time. I want to install slackware with a minimum number of packages. In addition, I do not want to use the setup to install slackware.

I found this example:

http://small-slackware.blogspot.com/200 ... nimum.html

I want to manually configure slackware. But there are problems. You have to know what. And where.
The thread on linuxquestion appears that one can see what he was doing the setup.

On this moment I haven't how manually install keybord map.

You can try to install slackware (virtualbox) in this way then surely you'll see what the problem.
slackware-13.37-install-d1.iso - I use this iso.

Why not?

Of course you do. That's what the slackware installation scripts do. You're only asking for trouble if you don't use them. The answer from ponce on the linuxquestions thread is the only answer you can get. If you want to study how things are configured during slackware installation, study the slackware installation scripts in the slackware installation initrd image, present in the slackware iso you have.

Also cross-posting is considered quite rude. The least you can do is referring in both threads to the other board, which you've done by now at least for us. I think it's no problem when you're really getting no answer after a decent amount of time and add cross-references, as I mentioned before. Anyway, just wanted to mention that as it could get you into bigger troubles with other people, which I can fully understand.

Sorry

Ok, I change my mind.
I prepare minimal range packages and I will install minimal Slackware for the purpose of firewall.

Code: Select all

a/file
a/lvm2
a/findutils
a/gawk

a/glibc-solibs
a/glibc-zoneinfo
a/kbd

a/inotify-tools
a/reiserfsprogs
a/sysklogd
a/u-boot-tools

Which of these packages can be discarded? Remember that it is preparing a package of firewall

Try using dep-finder to check dependencies

[ink3]

depfinder package not work. For example:

Code: Select all

$ depfinder -f acl-2.2.50-i486-1.txz
