Hi cast-fish

--- Quote ---would it find and make a persistant TCE directoty someplace?

Only on EXT and FAT file systems. If you want the CD to deal with a tce directory on NTFS, you will have
to remaster the CD, and follow the directions in the aforementioned links.

hello...there

ok....Rich

so is the new user aware about those extensions...?

(could it be simple to infer to new tcL NTFS users how they get the tcL OS
to really have persistence after a reboot.....) 

just thinkin

thx for replying

Vi.

Hi cast-fish
I'm not sure what you are asking. If you looking for my assurance that newcomers read the section titled:

--- Quote ---Extensions disappear after booting. How do I keep my extensions?
--- End quote ---
in the FAQs which states:

--- Quote ---Note: Drive partition types supported by Tiny Core base are: ext2, ext3, ext4, fat32.
--- End quote ---
I can't do that. TC is a toolkit. If one wants it to do something that is not part of its default behavior, one is free
to make modifications, in which case reading the Wiki, FAQs, and forum is strongly recommended.
Even though you can make TC load/save extensions on NTFS, I don't think it is officially supported, but I'm
sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong on that point.

Hello Rich


thanks for the reply.

Yes, it must be just how i see things.

New users, i suppose...are already interested enough to get TCL in the first place and
therefor perhaps they certainly DO read that stuff. (it is normal practice right)

From the extremely limited experience of myself with others...there
is a certain "learning curve" that new TCL users just have to get to grips
with.

As an operating system, tcl could warn on power down, "sorry your apps will
be lost" if TCL "knows" there is no persistence... prompting perhaps further
progress by a user much more soon.  ( or some such idea)

just an idea...

thx

Vi.

Core does not invoke persistence of extensions when run in default mode, regardless of presence of filesystems.
