I'm just about to get Slackware 7. I'd like to know if my onboard i810e video card is compatible with SlackWare 7. Thanks!

haven't posted in a few days...
I don't know. ANyway, I just picked up Slackware 8, and I tried to install it: I have to find out how to use cfdisk better.

cfdisk
Well, It's just like fdisk (I HOPE you've heard of fdisk!). IT's a partition program, similar to fdisk, except it's a little easier to use. Slackware is completely text-based (installation, at least.), so it uses the "Old" technology. You actually have to issue commands to install Slackware! Hope that clears the cfdisk thing up!

Yep, just like fdisk, but a little easier (it's menu-based).
