  2. software booting or commonly called unetbootin, usb creator etc. #recommend use unetbootin
  3. iso slackware operating system

and then create boot live slackware dvd on usb flashdisk with unetbootin, after create;

  1. login with root on slackware
  2. check your partition with fdisk -l or cfdisk whatever you want :) #there my partition slackware on partition /dev/sda3 so adjust to your partiotion
  3. and mount # mount /dev/sda3 /mnt
  4. # mount -o bind /dev /mnt/dev
  5. # mount -t proc none /mnt/proc
