A. Looks to see if there's 256Mb of system RAM available. If not, it makes fun of you and drops to a shell.
B. Tries to get a DHCP lease, failing that it will prompt for the usual: IP, gateway IP, netmask, and the IP of the image server (we'll get
to that in a minute.)
C. Mounts some ramdisk, wget's a tarball of its modules from the image server, unpacks that, and then tries to modprobe all of them.
D. Mounts some more ramdisk, wget's a 53Mb tarball of a Slackware root filesystem from the image server, unpacks that, pivot_root's
over to that and fires off the local Slackware /sbin/init.
