installpkg <filename> ---------have to tell it what to install,pkgtool will let you run setup scripts again or install pkgs from the directory where you are when you run pkgtool-------so if your in cd/slackware/a and run pkgtool and select install programs it will do the ones in that directory, all of them, and ask for each one
assuming your in the right directory----- cd/slackware/a , once your in that directory and you can list the files with ls, lilo---*&^*^* should be there, just type this:
installpkg lilo(then hit the tab key,it will autocomplete the rest), then hit return, it should install it
this works if your currently in the directory where the file is, you can check with pwd(which stands for Print Working Directory--tells you where you are), and ls should list all the files, ls | more or ls | less will send the output of list-->ls to whats called a pager, lets you scroll thru a listing that wont fit on one screen or page
commandline skills man, I know its foreign to you, get used to it, its the best way to do things in linux, not everything can be done graphically, although KDE does have a package manager app you can use, I think its call kpackage or kpackagemanager--------use that if you want, at your own risk, Ive watched GUI apps for this kinda thing screw up for years
