Thanks
this morning I created a new extension since both extensions made by myself and Juanito installed but failed to copy the file 8712u.ko.gz to it's desired location.
location for the driver is:
/usr/local/lib/modules/2.6.33.3-tinycore/kernel/drivers/net/wireless
So this morning I created another extension this time I cd to tmp (instead of /tmp/pkg like yesterday)
tmp/pkg/usr/local/lib/modules/2.6.33.3-tinycore/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/r8712u.ko.gz
cd tmp
mksquashfs pkg/ r8712u-2.6.33-tinycore.tcz
copied r8712u-2.6.33-tinycore.tcz to optional directory and opened AppsAudit, On Boot Maintenance, then moved r8712u-2.6.33-tinycore.tcz to the onboot list, exited out of the OnBoot maintenance and rebooted.
After the reboot the extension is again loaded, it is listed in the installed list yet STILL the driver r8712u.ko.gz can not be found anywhere on the system particularly is not listed in /usr/local/lib/modules/2.6.33.3-tinycore/kernel/drivers/net/wireless
back to square one, ok maybe two..
