Hi

I've uploaded changes today for armedslack-current -
mostly the addition of a mostly modular Kernel, and
a generic initrd for the ARM versatile platform, as well
as the most recent Slackware installer; plus many small
install-time fixes with the 'tag' files.

I'm almost ready to release ARMedslack 12.2 - the next
important task is writing some documentation to install a system
inside QEMU, and then advertise on the Slackware forum of
linuxquestions.org, for some testing.

Also, Patrick Volkerding has knighted ARMedslack as an official
Slackware port, which I'm really happy about!

I've also ordered a couple of Marvell SheevaPlug dev kits and
I intend to get ARMedslack running on those.

Once 12.2 is released, I aim to move to EABI - and maintain
only security updates for ARMedslack 12.2 (currently uses Old ABI
and will be incompatible with EABI).

Thanks for reading!
Stuart
