Upgrading Microcore to Tinycore

(1/2) > >>

Ezekeel:
The article http://wiki.tinycorelinux.com/Adding+a+Desktop+to+MicroCore is outdated and I need to install Xlibs.gz and Xprogs.gz to setup a window manager, however tce-load does seem to work and unzipping them with gzip only gives me some sort of archive which cannot be extracted using neither tar nor ar. How do I install these files?

curaga:
Place them in your tce dir (not optional), reboot.

Juanito:
..and you will also need either Xvesa.gz or an Xorg extension.

There is also the option of putting them in /boot and calling them from the boot loader.

Ezekeel:
Hmm. So you need a persistent tce directory somewhere. Any way to do this without one?

^thehatsrule^:
They are (now) initramfs, so you could load them via a bootloader.
