Tiny Core Extensions > TCE Bugs
With TinyCore 4.2 grub finds no HDD
chattrhand:
Hello to the friendly helpers!
With TinyCore 4.3 I had the same problems as with 4.2: I was booting frugal installations created with 4.1 and earlier, and they hang up while searching for /opt/??? with no error messages.
So I created a new frugal installation with TC 4.3 and it worked fine. I can even start this new frugal installation using the CD of TC 4.1. The settings of the older installations are only accessible using TC 4.1 and must be copied one by one.
For me this is not a big problem, now that I know it. I'm aware that TC is in an experimental state with big development steps.
It is possible to update extensions like firefox even with non-newest version of TinyCore. AppsAudit displays a warning message about that, but it does the update and the updated firefox works fine.
greetings

hello,
the upgrade from 4.1 to 4.2 was a bit sportlich for me, too.
I had in fact to store all single files of the madata.tgz into a separate directory and boot with norestore.
Then I modified all files one by one (.xsession etc. see 4.2 change log) before creating a new mydata.tgz.
perhaps it helps.

hello friends of TC,
now I am using TC 4.4 and found out that the iMac caused the problem. MacOSX uses EFI partition, but nevertheless there must be somewhat like a reduced BIOS for Systems that directly boot from CD/DVD. Non-Apple laptops work with either TC version on either frugal installations.
It is clear that there is a risk of damaging your frugal installations when booting them with a non-appropriate TC-Version.
The Scm-type installation of extensions seems to be much easier than the OnDemand method.
thanks
