In your header.php check if you are an the front page:
if ( is_front_page() or is_home() )
{
# your slider code here
}
else
{
# your regular code
}
The front page is the top page, eg. http://example.com/. The home page is the page for your blog posts. That can be the same as your front page or a custom page like http://example.com/news/. See Settings/Reading in WP admin.

But how does that display the featured image as the header image on any page or post? Commented Jan 5, 2014 at 14:42

I have got answer for it. I have changed the code to add meteor slides plugin in functions.php to show the slideshow just in the homepage.
<?php if ( is_front_page() ) {
if ( function_exists( 'meteor_slideshow' ) ) {
meteor_slideshow();
}
} ?>
After that i used a plug called WP display header to set header image for each page

But how does that hook the slider into the header from your functions file when there's no header hook in the code? Commented Jan 5, 2014 at 12:52
