Toshiba 4010CDT blank screen

(1/2) > >>

webeye:
I cannot get the tinycore to work right on the laptop. I know it does bootup on my Acer Aspire 5517 but I rather use it on the toshiba. So far on the toshiba it goes real fast like it is going to try but then at the end all I have got is a blank blue screen. Right now I have puppy installed on it, I would rather have tinycore! Hope someone can help.

Juanito:
You could try with the boot code "text" and then "xsetup.sh" to see what choices you are offered.

Thank you for your time and I did as said and got as far as picking the mouse selected 1 then tcObox came up with $ and I don't know what to do next?
 

^thehatsrule^:
type in `startx` after.

Or use the "xsetup" boot option instead.

webeye:
Thank you I tried both and all suggestions and end up at the blank blue screen. I do notice that it says No apic or something.
