First off, can your computer boot from a CD? Can it boot from a Pendrive? If not, you can stop here.

It seems to me that you are not familiar with burning an ISO file to a disk. You need to do that first.

If you are really new to Linux, TinyCore may not be the ideal Linux to start with.

Then you need to read through the installation instructions at the TinyCore main website.

Hi borgbucolic
I'm guessing you don't lose many pen drives. Those fishing hooks will discourage most people from
borrowing them, plus you can hook it to a shirt pocket and not have to worry about misplacing
it. Looks like a win win solution to me.

It is really good for fishing in data streams. 

I was opting for a cyborg penguin with a John Deere baseball cap and a toothpick sticking out of its beak. I couldn't get the artwork quite right. It was kinda lame too. When this came to me.

Hi arun48
You probably need to install   ALSA   or   OSS. If that does not solve it, please start a new thread
for any audio problems you have. Don't forget to mention what steps you took and any error
messages you may have received.
