cde directory on multi boot usb stick
« on: February 06, 2014, 07:10:07 AM »
Hi all,

I like to put the CorePlus to my multi boot usb stick with a lot of different linux distributions. Therfore I have a /boot directory with directories like ubuntu, sysresccd, ... Now I created a directory coreplus and copied the whole content of the iso in it, which is easy to update. Bootmanager is syslinux 6.

How can I tell CorePlus to use the /boot/coreplus/cde directory with the extention packages? It is not in the root directory of the usb stick and i don't want that because of the update process. The current config is:

LABEL coreplus32
   MENU LABEL Tiny Core Plus Linux 32bit
   SAY Booting Tiny Core Plus Linux 32bit ...
   KERNEL /boot/coreplus/boot/vmlinuz
   INITRD /boot/coreplus/boot/core.gz
   APPEND loglevel=3 cde showapps desktop=flwm_topside

I found something like tce=... option, but no cde=... option.

Best Regards, Marco

The cde dir is only intended for read-only devices, and only supported as a top-level dir. Make it a tce dir.
The only barriers that can stop you are the ones you create yourself.
