You could install tc on usb drive first.

Something like this:

I think your syntax is wrong, have you tried to use the UUID or LABEL, like the FAQ.

You can now specify the device to be used by UUID as follows:
tce=UUID=4773-DFE2 home=UUID=4773-DFE2 opt=UUID=4773-DFE2 restore=UUID=4773-DFE2

For Tiny Core boot options use:
tce=LABEL=tinycore home=LABEL=tinycore opt=LABEL=tinycore restore=LABEL=tinycore

I have bootable usb in which 2 folder boot cde present
The  cde  directory is for non writable media (i.e CD-ROM).
Rename that to  tce .
