[ale] Slackware 12.0 installation scripts

Okay, well what I wound up doing was something like

(from the mount point of the CD with the packages: /packages)

for f in ls slackware/*/*.tgz do ;
  name=`basename $f | cut -d '-' -f1`
  echo $name
  file `which $name`
done > $HOME/OUTPUT

I did a grep empty $HOME/OUTPUT | wc -l

and found 69 files that were bad.


I'm surprised that it was "only" 69 that didn't make it.  But at least I
know better where I am at.


There's probably a slicker way to do this, and I'm all ears if so.  But
this is the first thing I thought of that might work.  So thanks much
anyway!

Dave
