Hi, Juanito. There seems to be something wrong with corepure64.gz's ability to load extensions. When I use it instead of 13-alpha's  modules64.gz  and  rootfs64.gz  then none of my extensions get loaded (and, of course, X doesn't start).

[GNUser]

Here's some more information to help troubleshoot: If I boot using v13.0's  corepure64.gz*  and use the  showapps  bootcode, this error shows up for each extension: "mount: can't setup loop device: No such device or address".

Maybe the problem is that during boot process  tce-setup  can find my  onboot.lst  but does not have access to  /tmp  for some reason?

Tinycore version 13.x kernel is the same as version 12.x

[Juanito]

Sorry - fat fingers - hopefully things are OK now.

Looks good now!

Hello, thanks for the new release, but I don't see Linux kernel 5.15.10. It looks like this version is using Linux kernel 5.10.

Hi zaman
Welcome to the forum.

Juanito corrected that. Try downloading it again.

[tcl_user5]

I am unable to download and install the pavucontrol, alsa and pulseaudio extensions.

It is throwing up an error of alsa-modules-5.10.3-tinycore64.tcz- No such file or directory found .

It appears that it is looking for alsa-modules-5.10.3 whereas it should be looking for alsa-modules-5.15.10 which is listed in the repo.

As a result, unable to play sound in fitefox and Vivaldi.

Pl check.

You're using the old kernel, you have to replace
both vmlinuz64 and corepure64.gz
all vmlinuz64, modules64.gz and rootfs64.gz

Code: [Select]

tc@box:~$ uname -r
5.15.10-tinycore64
tc@box:~$ version
13.0

Hi Juanito
I downloaded both ISOs from the TC13 x86_64 release repo and looked inside the vmlinuz64 files. Both showed
the version as 5.10.3-tinycore64.

The x86 release ISOs are correct, version 5.15.10-tinycore.

[Juanito]

I was definitely having a bad day - corrected now.

Hi Juanito
I think you did it to see if we were paying attention.

Some people when leaving for the long journey intentionally leave at home some unimportant thingy, like bottle opener, in order not to forget something really significant. Because it is impossible not to forget something! Let this accidental packing will be the heaviest release issue
Really fantastic release, Bravo!
