To clone repository: <code>git clone git://git.zeratul.org/slackware/Slack-Kickstart.git</code>

Slack-Kickstart allows you to auto-magically install Slackware on your machine. This includes pre-installation and post-installation 
scripts, partitioning, CD/DVD/FTP/HTTP/NFS installation medium, tag lists, per machine Kick-Start config files via FTP/HTTP/NFS/script and such.
Supported Slackware versions should be all up from Slackware-8.1. 32-bit version is untested(I have no interest in 32-bit version). 
Cross-platform(64-bit<->32-bit) is possible in theory, but untested and not recommended.

Slack-Kickstart is kind of clone to Red Hat's [[http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Anaconda/Kickstart|Anaconda]]. However, make no mistake, 
because Slack-Kickstart is no clone(although this is not contradicted for future development). It just imitates some behaviour.

As of now, my "forked" version of Slack-Kickstart doesn't have GUI for Kick-start configuration. Original one has this feature.

You can find more information in [[https://git.zeratul.org/?p=slackware/Slack-Kickstart.git;a=blob_plain;f=README;hb=HEAD|README]].
