Tiny Core v4.0.2

<< < (3/5) > >>

loubapache:
Thank you all for the great releases.


I am fairly new to TinyCore so please forgive me if this is not the right place for my questions.


I am running 4.0.2 now with a few issues.


The most strange one is that I cannot use "protect" or"secure" in boot loader.  If I do, then wifi would not work (no wifi device found).  If I boot without either of these, then it works just fine.


TIA

roberts:
Need more specifics.  What specifically are you booting from, e.g., multicore_4.0.2 cd?
What specifically did you type at the boot prompt?

loubapache:
Thanks, Robert.

I am booting off of a USB drive (created using the multicore iso) that has a frugal install of 4.0.2.

I simply added either "protect" or "secure" to the bootloader in "syslinux.cfg" such as

label plus
   kernel /boot/vmlinuz
   append initrd=/boot/tinycore.gz quiet waitusb=5 protect

The prompts for me to create passwords all went well but then wifi was gone.

Aside: it never ceases to amaze me how quickly/easily I can upgrade TC. Clearly, that's a good thing.

Same here  :)  I just rename my old vmlinuz and tinycore.gz to eg. vmlinuz40 and tinycore40.gz then copy new vmlinuz and tinycore.gz to my boot directory that's it! there is no need to change my grub.cfg.

I'm not sure if this is correct but i remember i read it somewhere here in the forum. any comments regarding
this process?

Thanks to all Tiny Core Team for this great distro!

Hi ru60hz
That's a good way to go when trying out a new release since it provides a simple way to revert
back to the previous version if you are not happy with the results.
