unofficial slackware mirrors
It's a whole new slackware-stable. Everyone wants it. Few (if any) official mirrors have all of it, but we're getting there.

Latest ftp.slackware.com Updates:

Important Notes:

  • Slackware & Slackware64 14.2 released 2016-Jun-30. You know the drill. Save a tonne of bandwith (~6.4GB per tree) by doing these simple steps before updating:
    • cp -a slackware-current/ slackware-14.2/
    • cp -a slackware64-current/ slackware64-14.2/
  • ISOs for Slackware & Slackware64 14.2 are available through BitTorrent here & here (identical torrents). Yup, 1 DVD & 6 CDs for 32 bit, 1 DVD for 64 bit, as well as 1 DVD common for 32 & 64 bit! So remember kids, play nice & leave your BitTorrent clients running for as long as possible after you're done grabbing your fix.
  • Do not cut'n'paste this listing to various fora as it is updated whenever mirrors are added &/or removed. Translation: Cut'n'paste bad, direct link good.
  • Read the per-server notes. They're there for a reason. :)
