Boot into the slitaz live cd.
Mount slitaz live cd to /media/cdrom
# mount /dev/sr0 /media/cdrom
Mount install target partition to /mnt/target
#mount /dev/? /mnt/target
# mkdir /mnt/target/boot
Copy the kernel
# cp -a /media/cdrom/boot/vmlinuz-* /mnt/target/boot
Copy the rootfs{4 3 2 1}.gz into the install partiton.
# cp /media/cdrom/boot/rootfs*.gz /mnt/target
Change into the directory with the rootfs*.gz
# cd /mnt/target
Combine the 4 rootfs.gz into 1 rootfs.gz
# cat $(ls -r rootfs*.gz) > rootfs.gz
Extract the file tree from rootfs.gz
# lzma d rootfs.gz -so | cpio -id

Hi Mojo
Thank you for your answer, but it was not really my question:
I will only install rootfs4.gz and rootfs3.gz to have slitaz-no-graphic ;-)
And after that, if I think it is good but not enough, perhaps, but only perhaps rootfs4.gz, gzrootfs3.gz and rootfs2.gz (JustX). But I don't will install rootfs1.gz hat all.
Good...
If I only install rootfs4.gz, SliTaz starts and
# tazpkg list
informs me: 43 packages and her list...
If I install rootfs.4 and rootfs.3, no changes but the size of the common rootfs.gz is terribly bigger! Where are the other packages? Is suppose also installed, but totally inactive?
How to activate them?
And see them in the list
# tazpkg list
?
That was my question.
Or,
I will try to actualize SliTaz 4.0 as Russian Doll system for me and continue to use that system as it was as I did read that 5.0 will not continue it...

@oui,
Install rootfs4.gz:
# lzma d rootfs4.gz -so | cpio -id
Then install rootfs3.gz:
# lzma d rootfs3.gz -so | cpio -idu
If you want to add rootfs2.gz:
# lzma d rootfs2.gz -so | cpio -idu
see french documentation: http://doc.slitaz.org/fr:handbook:installation#installation-a-la-main, section: Installation du système, Copie du système de fichiers compressés
