Tiny Core Base > Final Releases
Tiny Core v4.0
floppy:
few issues on my side (today status; mc4.0):
- error on boot now "hwclock: can t open dev/misc/rtc no such file or directory"; I use the bootcode TZ=....
- booting probably increased from 49 (3.8.4) to 51s (4.0) for my young PC.
Perhaps this is coming from the boot code ide_core ignore_cable=1 which is nomore working.
my second HDD (6GB) is nomore recognized as UDMA66 with this ide_core boot code.
I will dig into this topic how to regain boot speed: perhaps making a non persistent home on this (now) UDMA33 drive,
or play again with other boot codes. Im not sure of the test: perhaps I deleted the nozswap. I must have a look again at the box.
- usb_modeswitch.tcz missing
Change: the screen stay dark now without pci=use_crs. So, this is a mandatory boot code for me now.
If somebody has any idea how to improve the speed.. what boot code makes now a miracle.. ?
swap=sdc2 as boot code slow the pc: it seems that automatic swap detection (no boot code) is quicker.

TC4 uses less ram at boot, more after; if you already used the embed bootcode, you'll only see the (slight) increase. CPU usage should not change measurably.
barbudor:
Thanks Curaga.
I'll check and investigate about "embedd" boot code which I didn't know about.
At least, the great thing is how easy it is to try v4 and switch back in a minute to v3...
:D
curaga:
The embed change was in 3.8.2, I see you're already on 3.8.3. If you do any measurements, please post them.
