Using the install 14.2 USB stick I get a GRUB menu that lets me boot 
Slackware huge ... (it went ahead before I could copy all the details. 
There were two alternatives, one with something like CMS.)

It then moved on to where I could enter something for an alternative 
keyboard. I took the default and hit enter.

Next I have the welcome to the Slackware Linux installation disk, 
version 14.2.

There are several lines warning me of things I need to do before the 
installation, followed by:

You may now log in as root.

I can log in as root.

I get an error message:

root at slackware:/# mount /dev/sda1
mount: can't find /dev/sda1 in /etc/fstab
root at slackware:/#

root at slackware:/# fdisk -l

gives me a long list of /dev/ram0 through /dev/ram15

Then I get:

What do I do now?
