Quick & Easy Overview Modes vs. Core Concept Modes
« on: November 23, 2011, 12:50:15 PM »
This is a request for clarification:

In the Quick & Easy Overview 3 TCL modes are described:
  • Cloud
  • USB Stick
  • USB Stick Boot

In the Core Concepts article, 3 TCL modes are described, too:
  • Default (aka Cloud)
  • Mount (aka TCZ/install)
  • Copy (aka TCZ/install _ copy2fs.flg/lst)

Can you confirm that those 2x3 modes respectively correspond to each other? i.e.
  • Cloud == Default (aka Cloud)
  • USB Stick == Mount (aka TCZ/install)
  • USB Stick Boot == Copy (aka TCZ/install _ copy2fs.flg/lst)

If they don't perfectly correspond to each other, how do they differ?

In hindsight, maybe using the term  mode  was a mistake. The intent of the writeup was to describe
three simple ways of trying Tinycore that did not involve touching the hard drive. Aside from cloud,
there is no correlation between the others.

Mount (aka TCZ/install)=persistent /tce directory, apps are mounted but reside in /tce

Copy (aka TCZ/install _ copy2fs.flg/lst)=persistent /tce directory, apps are copied to RAM
