Can a Slackware on ARM image be created using a 32bit Intel system?
by doctorwho8 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#546ZN)
Hello!
I have a Slackware-11.0 system available, which is 32bit, and can setup a Slackware-13.37 one which would also be 32bit. The only 64bit Linux system I have is not a Slackware one, it's a SuSe one running via the WSL setup on this laptop.
I ask because I saw the pages on creating an image using the relevant pieces from a regular Raspberry Pi image and the miniroot file from the FTP site, that is its contents exploded onto an appropriate image made up following that series of pages instructions.
I ask because my last trial using Slackware on ARM was a while ago, and not using the SARPI based setup, it was a completely different method.
