Firefox bookmarks disappear on reboot as does VLC
Neo:
Hi All,
I just rebooted my computer (I did not select back up) and when Tiny Core rebooted I was missing my newest bookmarks and the fact that I had told Firefox to always use VLC to listen to on-line radio.
What do I have to do to maintain my choices and bookmarks?
It still tells me I need to install Flash despite the fact that I installed Getflash10 using Appbrowser.
Any ideas?
Neo:
It seems that you have to select back-up when you reboot or shut down.
Please let me know if this is incorrect.
Now to figure out how to add a decent wall paper...
Guy:
The best way to save settings is to include home=sda1 (or other partition) in the boot menu. It is a good idea to also include opt=sda1 also.
You can use backup, but it may take a long time.
To install Flash Player, while connected to the internet, select getflash10 from the menu (right click).

Do you mean to the Grub menu?
My Grub entry for Tiny Core is:
--- Quote ---title Tiny Core
root (hd0,10)
kernel /boot/bzImage quiet tce=sda11 home=sda11 opt=sda11 max_loop=255
initrd /boot/tinycore.gz

Yes
There have been problems with some Linux distros when a partition over sda9 is used. I don't know if this is a problem with Tiny Core or not.
I suggest installing it on a partition with a lower number. Do you have another partition available, with a lower number, to try?
This is a guess. I don't know for sure. But it is what I would try.
