Eek!  Don't install 3.5, it's waay too old... I think you're talkin kernel
2.0.34 or so, and the current kernel is 2.2.14!  Slackware 7 comes with
2.2.13, all the new goodies, and fixes for the stuff left behind in 4,
3.6, and 3.5.  Slack 7.1 is supposed to be out by summer.   Installing 3.5
is machine-o-cide though. :)
