It's easy to make your own slaxsave.dat file of any size you might want —

# dd if=/dev/zero of=mysave.dat bs=1024 count=64k
# mkfs.xfs mysave.dat
# mv mysave.dat slaxsave.dat

which would produce a slaxsave.dat of 64mb size. Adjust that count value to suit what you want.

A file like this, loop mounted, can also be a convenient destination for a mo2dir operation — on a machine with no linux-format partitions.

# mkdir temp
# mount -o loop mysave.dat temp
# mo2dir some.mo temp

After which you can use konqueror or whatever util to examine or modify the internals of a .mo file.
