+sbootmgr.dsk  This nifty little tool allows selecting various devices to boot
+              from a menu, and even allows booting a CD-ROM in machines where
+              the BIOS doesn't support it (or it's supposed to support it, but
+              it just doesn't work).  If you have trouble booting the
+              Slackware CD-ROM, you might try writing this image to a floppy,
+              booting it, and then selecting your CD-ROM drive as the boot
+              device.
+
+              The SBM installer is available as a Slackware package (called
+              "btmgr") in the extra/ packages collection.

+----------------------------
+Generic floppy image creation info:
+
+To create a floppy disk from one of these images, use the RAWRITE command on
+DOS or Windows.  For example, to make the first rootdisk image (install.1),
+you'd put a formatted 1.44MB floppy in your floppy drive, and then run this
+command:
+
+C:\> RAWRITE INSTALL.1 A:
+
+There are several versions of RAWRITE provided to handle most versions of DOS
+and Windows.  If one version doesn't seem to work, try another.
+
+To make the floppy images under Linux, use the "cat" command to send them to
+the floppy device.  This command will make the first install disk:
+
+cat install.1 > /dev/fd0
