I hope 1.4.3 is not too old and  I will still be able to format it and make it work.

Congratulations !  :D
Have you installed any bootloader on your hard disk yet ?
Such as grub-0.97
http://tinycorelinux.net/install_manual.html

After installing the bootloader, you can try out newer build with it.
Just modify the config file.  ;)
Good luck !

Thanks a lot! I followed the instructions in the link you provided!
Now it's installed and it can boot on it's own without the CD!!!

Download the latest kernel and initrd
http://tinycorelinux.net/7.x/x86/release/distribution_files/vmlinuz
http://tinycorelinux.net/7.x/x86/release/distribution_files/core.gz
Move them to your "boot" directory

Assume your menu.lst look like this:

--- Quote ---default 0
timeout 10
title tinycore
kernel /boot/bzImage quiet
initrd /boot/tinycore.gz

--- End quote ---
Append it to something like this:

--- Quote ---default 0
timeout 10
title tinycore
kernel /boot/bzImage quiet
initrd /boot/tinycore.gz
title tinycore7
kernel /boot/vmlinuz quiet tce=sda1/tce7
initrd /boot/core.gz

--- End quote ---
This way, the newer tce directory does not conflict with the old ones.

Hey _Josue_, did you managed to boot up your Mendicino ?

Check this out !

I believe the hardware is close enough to yours.  :)
