Linux Kernel 4.6.4 Now Unofficially Available for Slackware 14.2 and Derivatives

Just yesterday we reported on the release of Linux kernel 4.6.4 as being the latest and most advanced stable kernel version available for GNU/Linux operating systems, and Arne Exton was quick to compile it for Slackware-based distributions, including Slackware 14.2, Slax, Zenwalk, and SlackEX.
