[olug] slack10 install issue

[Charles Bird]

ok, i knew I had to figure out the stupid thing that was 
not allowing me to install. and I found it, hda was 
plugged into ide1 instead of ide0. so I switched and tried 
and yep, I'm in biz. doe 
I love slackware on this machine. Sticking with this one 
until this beast dies.
