Slackware DOES have netinstall. it works very well, but you need to type 
in exact path to the server you want to download files from. Works over 
NFS,  HTTP and FTP.  Find a mirror online and enter it in on the 
appropriate step (there is a list on slackware.com). You have to type it 
in manually, sorry :(

Shame on you Kingbeowulf....
