TCE Talk / Re: tce-load on startup?

3 Problems with your solution:
Boot code 'base' will not skip extension loading.
Boot code 'norestore' will not load extensions as expected.
Extensions will try to load on each login, not just at boot.

TCB Bugs / Re: mkdir can't create directory /home/tc/.local permission denied

« Last post by Blues_Wolf on Today at 11:34:12 AM »

Hi Again,

Now with TCL 5.3

Error seems to be cause by the tc folder ownership.
It's owned by root:root with no Write permissions for user tc

Now, after the MOTD one of the packages tries to create the .local folder with the tc credentials and it's unable to.

I'm gonna try as workaround to create a package that modifies the folder ownership to tc:staff when loaded, and load it before any other package.
I'm currently netbooting TCL5.3 using HTTP and an httplist bootcode, nothing more.

PS: I don't get this error when using TCL 4.x

EDIT: Workaround worked, Attached is the .tcz
But it will be great to find another way to fix it

What's the grub2 extension called? I only saw grub2-efi.tcz, but I'll look again tomorrow.

I doubt the EFI bootloader works with MBR bios. You should use a MBR bootloader.

It's a normal bios (non uefi) and mbr partitioned. Does that mean I have to have a boot partition at the beginning of the disk?

Coreplayer2 I forgot to include I also tried those commands at the grub rescue prompt, it came back with error: unknown command.

It's been a year or so since I've worked with linux, and have forgotten a lot. I know there was trouble last time I tried to install grub but don't remember how it was solved.

Edit: Here's my disk layout

The idea is that you create grub.cfg yourself
