If you ever want to use another Operating System without having to reboot into it, for example, you should try using a virtual machine.
In this thread, I'll be talking about VirtualBox. I installed four packages in total. Three from SlackOnly (pre-compiled) and one from SlackBuilds (I built it myself).
https://packages.slackonly.com/pub/packages/14.2-x86_64/system/virtualbox/
https://packages.slackonly.com/pub/packages/14.2-x86_64/system/virtualbox-addons/
https://packages.slackonly.com/pub/packages/14.2-x86_64/system/virtualbox-extension-pack/
https://slackbuilds.org/repository/14.2/system/virtualbox-kernel/
Those four worked fine here on a full Slackware64 14.2 installation.
I'm not going to get into the details of how to use VirtualBox. The VirtualBox Manual (https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/) should be a good reference if you're beginning to use VirtualBox.
