Okay:

!. Get a USB flash drive that can hold the Slackware.iso
Using Gparted make a DOS partition table on the USB flash drive, format 
it fat32 and make boot flag.

2. Open file manager where the down loaded slackware.iso is and Ctrl+F4 
to open console where the .iso is, now # md5sum slackware.iso to check 
the md5sum

3. Put USB flash drive into computer and # fdisk -l to get name of the 
"unmounted" USB flash drive

4. dd bs=4M if=slackware.iso of=/dev/sdb
In the above use the real name of the .iso and the real name of the 
flash drive, don't mess up the spacing and hit the enter key

5. Make sure your BIOS is set to boot the USB drive, boot flash drive 
and install Slackware. As long as the USB flash drive is not corrupted 
you can reuse it.
