Re: chromium-browser.tcz failed to install in tinycore 5.3-19

I've made a 256 partition in my CF (all I have) and tried installing chromium-browser from command-line

tce-load -wi chromium-browser

Packets start to download and it stops here:

"Downloading: glib2.tcz
Connecting to repo.tinycorelinux.net (89.22.99.27:80)
wget:short write
glib2.tcz:FAILED
md5sum:WARNING: 1 of 1 computed checksums did NOT match
Error on glib2.tcz"

Can you please help me?
Regards

tce directory is full, no free space for download.

Again:
Show the output of "ls -l /etc/sysconfig/tcedir".
Show the output of "blkid /dev/sd*".
Show the output of "df /dev/sd*".

I suspect you either do not have a valid persistent  TCE directory or again have a full disk.

If all you did was repartition the hard drive, there could be several problems.
1. The UUID changed and needs to be changed or elimintated in extlinux.conf.
2. The partition is bigger, but the filesystem is not. so you need to run resize2fs from e2fsprogs.tcz.

I would recommend booting the CD, running tc-install and do a frugal install on the whole disk.

Sorry, I'm new to tinycore. I've made my CF following this tutorial:
http://www.parkytowers.me.uk/thin/Linux/TinycoreCF.shtml

@gerald_clark
I've made all the process indicated in the tutorial again, but making a partition of 256MB (using fdisk I've chosen the whole CF as partition size)
I'm not using a CD.

The output for the commands:
"ls -l /etc/sysconfig/tcedir"
lrwxrwxrwx  1   root root   13 Jan 12 00:00 /etc/ssconfig/tecdir -> /mnt/sda1/tce

"blkid /dev/sd*"


/dev/sda: PTTYPE='dos'
/dev/sda1: LABEL='TINYCORE' UUID='bf2b625c-a3ed-4696-94e6-b0acbfba77c5" TYPE="ext2"

"df /dev/sd*"
/dev/sda1  15.5M 14.7M          0 100% /mnt/sda1
df:/dev/sda2:can't find mount point
(the same for: sda3/4/5/6/7/8 & sdb/1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9)



I've checked it, e2fsprogs is already downloaded. But when I try :
$resize2fs
The answer is "resize2fs: not found"


Thanks.

The filesystem on  /dev/sda1 is still only 15M
Read the book and start over.

Ok. Thanks I'll read the book.
Anyway,if my partition is 256M and tce is just a directory I've created, without specifying any kind of size, how is it that I don't have enough space to put chromium-browser in that directory?
I've used fdisk to create one only partition in the CF and the size is 256 MB. I've made that partition bootable and it has ext2 filesystem. I don't understand why the partition seems to have 16MB

The guide you're using is so complicated and outdated, try this from the wiki http://distro.ibiblio.org/tinycorelinux/install.html
or as gerald_clark has previously recommended read http://distro.ibiblio.org/tinycorelinux/book.html see Chapter 2

even core wiki is a little outdated, where you read multicore simply replace with coreplus



edit  The Core Book Chapter 2 describes the install perfectly so i scratched out the first option

Everything is working
@gerald_clark, bmarkus and coreplayer2, thanks for your help  :)

Do I have to mark this topic as solved?
