ETA for Slackware 14 distro option?

general

I notice that Linode only provides Slackware version 13.37, but Slackware 14 was released last fall. When can we expect the most up-to-date version of Slackware to be available on Lindode? Thanks!

We don't have a precise ETA for when it will be available. In the interim you can roll your own distribution and upload it using rsync+ssh or dd:

Just upgrade 13.37.

Look into pvgrub. It's really neat.

It's not an easy install like the Linode auto-deployment stuff though.
