Title: Tiny Core bootable usb
Post by: malikawan on January 07, 2014, 11:11:27 PM: i created iso image through ezremaster and i change isolinux.cfg to

KERNEL /boot/vmlinuz
append initrd=/boot/core.gz loglevel=3 cde home=sdb1 opt=sdb1 showapps desktop=flwm_topside cde
and the i copy my home with required data and boot script in opt/bootlocal.sh in my usb
Now my question is that
Is it mount the home and opt from usb drive when start or not

Also, it would be better to add the boot code "waitusb=10" or similar.
