Contents of README.TXT:Welcome to Slackware 10.1! Slackware 10.1 is a complete distribution of the Linux operating system. This version contains the 2.4.29 Linux kernel, plus recent versions of these (and many more) software packages: - C compiler gcc-3.3.4 and gcc-3.4.3 - Binutils 2.15.92.0.2 - GNU C Library glibc-2.3.4 - X Window System X11R6.8.1 from X.Org. - KDE 3.3.2 - Xfce 4.2.0 For installation instructions, see the file 'Slackware-HOWTO'.
