Title: Applications for Live TinyCoreLinux not available!!
Post by: jhaveri_hiral on October 07, 2010, 10:14:04 AM
Hello,
I have made a Live USB of TinyCoreLinux 3.1

After booting into it, I opened "appbrowser" and clicked on "Connect" but I had no options for the Applications... It says "Check your Network or Mirrors"

I think there is some problem with PPR (Persistent Personal Repository).

I read the content at

http://distrowatch.com/weekly.php?issue=20090330
 (http://distrowatch.com/weekly.php?issue=20090330)

but I dont know how to set PPR, or how to get the sets of applications..
I also tried to connect my Live TinyCoreLinux with Internet incase by doing that I may have the applications, but I failed establishing the Internet connection!! :(

Could Anybody plz help me out with this and tell me how to get extensions or applications as they are said for my Live USB TinyCoreLinux

Waiting 4 reply...

Thank you... :)

Check your network.
Do you have an IP address?
Is your router defined?
Do you have nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf?

Thank you for reply  :) :)

Yes, I do have nameserver in /etc/resolv.conf

It is "nameserver = 192.168.1.1"

I tried it as the IP address in NETWORK of Panel and tried to Connect. Its not working.

I have the BSNL Broadband Connection for wired Internet as well as Airtel Broadband for wireless Internet.

Exactly, what does it mean by "My router is defined or not??"

Internet works perfectly fine in my Windows 7, so I guess my network and router must be fine..

So what do I do ??? ??? ???

That is not a valid nameserver entry.
Provided that is a valid nameserver, it should be:
nameserver 192.168.1.1

Show the output of
route -n
and
ifconfig
and
iwconfig
