-The installation process is essentially the same as for the stock Slackware. The only notable difference is that a single kernel package will supply both images (huge and generic) as well as the modules.
 ===== Switching to the Generic Kernel =====
-Just as the latest iterations of the stock Slackware, the link /boot/vmlinuz points at the huge kernel by default, while the link /boot/vmlinuz-generic points at the generic kernel. You can follow the [[http://docs.slackware.com/slackware:beginners_guide#switch_to_a_generic_kernel|official instructions]] for building the initrd image and configuring lilo without changing a word.
+The link /boot/vmlinuz points at the huge kernel by default, while the link /boot/vmlinuz-generic points at the generic kernel.
 Note also that you can switch to a generic kernel as early as during the installation phase, right after you quit the setup program, but before you reboot. You just have to settle for editing files with vi and prepending <code>chroot /mnt</code> when calling mkinitrd* and lilo.

 ===== Source Code =====
-The source part of the deblobbed Slackware repository can be found in the [[https://freenix.net/fxp/freeslack64-14.2/source/|usual place]]. Within it you can find all the code we use to [[https://freenix.net/fxp/freeslack64-14.2/source/fxp/|deblob the repository]] and to [[https://freenix.net/fxp/freeslack64-14.2/source/fxp/build/linux-libre/|refactor the kernel package]].

 The highlights include the [[https://freenix.net/fxp/freeslack64-14.2/source/fxp/cfg/deblob-slackware.txt|rsync blacklist]] we use when pulling from the (non-free) stock repository. The purpose of the list is to trim all non-free bits so early that they never get a chance to arrive at our production host. We are highly concerned with the accuracy and the currency of this list, so you would do us a great favor by helping us improve it.
 Another important piece of code is the [[https://freenix.net/fxp/freeslack64-14.2/source/fxp/bin/deployfxp|deployment script]] which assembles the free repository in real time by taking the trimmed free mirror as a starting point.
