For all those slackers who were waiting for the option, there is an
updated document in the wiki.
https://tools.bitfolk.com/wiki/Installing_Slackware_14.1
It shows how to install slackware 14.1 (32bit) onto a bitfolk vps. It
uses a simplified partition format (ext3) and hopefully a greatly
simplified procedure (originally based on
https://tools.bitfolk.com/wiki/Installing_Slackware - many thanks for
the good work there.)
It isn't supported by bitfolk, but at least it works (tested on my own vps).
regards, Tim

Thanks very much for doing that. I plan to give it a run-through
over Christmas and will put any observations on the Talk page.
One thing I do note is the amount of disk space required. It seems
really odd to me that there is no recommended way of installing a
server without X etc., and it is a shame because it means one would
have to purchase additional disk space to follow this guide.
Cheers,
Andy
