I'd like to install LINUX on my Pentium, which has a CD.  I've been told that
the easiest way to do this is from a CD.  It's available free by ftp, but much
easier to install via CD.  

I think I'd prefer version 2.3 or higher of the slackware distribution, and
version 1.2.* of the kernel.

Thanks.  Cautions/tips about this installation are solicited.

Chris
