After installing Slackware: a checklist

Should be done during installation:

• partitions
• /etc/fstab
• /etc/mdadm.conf
• /etc/mkinitrd.conf
• /boot/grub/grub.cfg
• /etc/hosts
• /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf
• Software series:
  • server: a ap d e f k l n t tcl x y (i.e., all except for kde kdei xap xfce)
  • desktop: add xap and removet (to be replaced with TeX Live)

After installation

• /etc/termcap should be replaced with the termcap file from the xterm source because it has the xterm-256color entry
• # ln -sf /usr/bin/vim /usr/bin/vi
• # chmod -x /etc/profile.d/bsd-games-login-fortune.sh
• /etc/resolv.conf
• Install and configure slackpkg+

• # slackpkg install bash-completion
