By making use of BL to install the rescue disk in rootdisk/, the library
packages and ppp package for dial-up. Boot to BL. First, you have to use dd
to
create an empty image and make the ext2 file system on the image. The
image has to be bigger then the rescue disk. Then copy everything except
the lib/ to the image you have created. Unpack the library packages and
move it to the lib/ and usr/lib/ of the image. Unpack ppp package to
usr/sbin/ of the image. compress the image and write to a floppy.
Lastly, download a bootdisk from slackware and write to another floppy.
Boot the bootdisk and follow the instructions. This is the idea.
