How do I install from the ISO9660 image if I don't have a CD-R or CD-RW drive

With loopback of course! You can mount the ISO9660 image on the kernel loopback device from another filesystem.

For example, say you download the ISO9660 image under Windows. Boot the Slackware boot and root disks for your system. Assuming your Windows partition is /dev/hda1 and you downloaded the ISO9660 image to C:, issue these commands:

mkdir -p /dos
mount -t vfat /dev/hda1 /dos
cd /dos
mknod /dev/loop0 b 7 0
mkdir /INSTALL
mount -o loop /dos/install.iso /INSTALL

You can then tell the Slackware setup program to install from a premounted directory and pass it /INSTALL/slakware. This trick can also be used if you cannot make a valid CD with your burner.

Have fun!

这是在Slackware网站上找到的如何从硬盘是使用*.ios来安装Slackware,其中有几点不明请指教
1.这里的loopback是否可理解为回环
2.kernel loopback device确指什么
3.这里的another filesystem应该是个*nix系统吧,什么意思?

可以理解为先用boot disk启动，然后按提示插入root disk,此后使用提示给出的命令吗?但是我该怎么做root/boot disk
