Slackware 12.1 has many improvements over the older release of Slackware 12.0 includes supporting of 2.6 kernel. It is a must install for any Linux users that have not tried Slackware and it is a must upgrade for any Slackware users. You can read more details on the improvements from Slackware’s official announcement.
I will wait for the ISO to release and download it as soon as possible from web. If you can’t wait, you can download the ISO via BitTorrent here.
