ISO: Slackware 15

What you get here

• A quick install flow summary.
• Post-install priorities checklist.
• Enough orientation to follow along confidently.

Install flow

1. Boot installer, choose keymap, log in as root.
2. Partition disk in cfdisk (UEFI/BIOS choice + root + swap as needed).
3. Run setup, enable swap, pick target filesystem, install full package set.
4. Configure bootloader, network, timezone, editor, and default desktop.
5. Set root password and reboot.

First-boot priorities

• Verify network connectivity.
• Create a non-root admin user.
• Configure sudo policy.
• Refresh package mirrors and run full system update.
• Ensure graphical login and bootloader state are aligned before final reboot.

Quality of Life Tweaks

1. Create an admin user and bypass password prompts for sudo:

   groupadd admin
   useradd -m -s /bin/bash -g users -G wheel admin
   passwd admin
   echo "admin ALL = (ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL" > /etc/sudoers.d/admin

2. Prep build directory for zoxide (and other SlackBuilds):

   sudo mkdir -p /opt/slackbuilds && sudo chown admin $_ && cd $_
   wget -qO- https://slackbuilds.org/slackbuilds/15.0/development/google-go-lang.tar.gz | tar -xzv
   cd google-go-lang
   wget -q https://storage.googleapis.com/golang/go1.21.6.src.tar.gz
   sudo ./google-go-lang.SlackBuild
