    Ran into an issue

    So I am just trying distro's and downloaded:

    slackware64-13.0-install-dvd.iso and made it into a USB install.

    I get it running..going through menus...which I was just trying my best..

    Than on the option it asked about a USB boot key? What is this? I did it though which was a mistake.

    Thank god my work is near by and I was able to make a live cd usb from fedora and install over it getting my PC back.

    So was the only mistake the USB boot key?

    Or did I miss something?

    I can be found either 40 miles west of Chicago, or in a galaxy far, far away.

    It sounds like you enabled some sort of drive security and/or encryption of the usb drive when you installed slackware. I've never used it (slackware), so this is just surmise.
    Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.
