Difference being that with 3.8.4 GUI components are within initrd, while they were outfactored to extensions since.
As opposed to what you claim in OP, when you meet a prompt "tc@box :~$" _ your system has fully booted, just no X server is running.

ok, I'm here again with a new problem.
I can't copy/move any files of my hdd. Tried xfe, fluff, and emelfm. It says
can't write to /mnt/sda2: permission denied.
Can't create '/mnt/sda2/a.txt' Read-only file system.

Running as root doesn't help.
How do I mount them as read-write.
Please help me. Which article (s) do I need to read?

gerald_clark:
I'm guessing an NTFS issue.

If you are using an NTFS file system it can only be mounted in read-only mode unless you install ntfs-3g.
That means your tce dirrectory cannot be on an NTFS filesystem without  remastering.

my hdd is NTFS. but I'm running tcl from a flashdrive. And tce directory is on th flash drive as well. It is formatted in FAT16.

Oh wait, you mean I need to install ntfs-3g in order to work with any ntfs partition, right?

gerald_clark:
If you want to write to it, yes.
