Presuming that you have a slackware CD and/or net access and access to
a linux box of some flavor:

To build a slackware boot disk, build a kernel with the aic7xxx_etc you
like on it.  Place a floppy in the drive.  Read kernels/README.NOW on
the slackware CD or the slackware/kernels directory on e.g. sunsite.
Follow its instructions (which are to run the scripts therein to build a
slackware boot disk from an arbitrary kernel).

It is very simple.
