v5.3 - Error Mounting USB device

[Yamash]

Hello,

I'm trying to install Tiny Core in Virtualbox at my notebook HP G6Z-2200, when I click in proceed to install TC it show me the error "Error Mounting USB device", and at the terminal it show.

mkefs 1.42.7 (21-Jan-2013)
mkfs.ext4: No such device or address while trying to determine filesystem size
0+1 records in
0+1 records out
440 bytes (440B) copied, 0.00000 seconds, 0B/s
mount: mounting /dev/sda1/ on .mnt/drive failed: No such device or address

Any  walkthrough?

Create a virtual disk.
Attach the coreplus.iso as a CD.
Boot from the CD and run the installer.  Do a frugal install to the whole virtual hard disk.
Change the boot device to the hard drive and reboot.

Make sure you use bridge mode for the network controller.

I tried again and I made sure that it network was bridged mode, tried frugal/whole disk sdb (I did another disk), ext4.

And it was not capable of install TC.

Try reading the tc book http://tinycorelinux.net/book.html  I'm sure it will answer your questions completely

I just had a similar problem with the installation failing on a VM (I was using GUI installer though) - it would fail with a message "Error mounting USB device". Turns out I accidentally made the target HDD (sda) too small - 4MB. After re-creating it with larger size, installation succeeded with all other options being default.
