[ARMedslack] Armedslack on a dockstar :-)

[Claudio Cavalera]

Hello,
I'm new to this list!
I've been using slackware on x86 since 7.1 and I tend to install it on
every machine I touch.
Recently I'm being in touch with the Seagate Dockstar which is a
promising device based on Kirkwood Soc:

I've found this info on how to install armedslack on it:
http://blog.gmane.org/gmane.linux.slackware.armedslack/month=20100801

I hope I'll succeed :-)

Just one general question on armedslack: is it suggested to use
slackbuilds.org scripts to compile and install software which is not
officially in slackware or is it better to compile and install by hand
?

Bye,
Claudio
