Tiny Core Base > Release Candidate Testing
Core v4.2rc1

Hi bmarkus
On the off chance that it might be timing related, does extending the waitusb time a little change
anything?

No.

I still think it is a timing issue. If you would, please use the LABEL option on your sdc1 together with the waitusb, e.g.,
waitusb=30:LABEL=MySdc1Label tce=sdc1
You won't have to wait 30 seconds only long enough for LABEL to be found, i.e., sdc1 to become ready.

And neither am I.
I tested this yesterday ( or so I thought ).
It is working today.
I would like to blame it on the late hour and diminishing pigment in my hair.
Sorry for wasting your time and bandwidth.
I think I will redo the second partition starting at 50M or so to provide a little more room
for updating the CorePlus partition with possibly slightly larger future versions.
I have been doing a lot of testing, and 4.2 is really nice.
Thanks.
---------------------
Revisiting this post, as I was not mistaken in what I was trying to explain.
There is no boot selection that does just "quiet waitusb=5"
The first 7 containe 'cde' and/or 'lst=xbase.lst' causing CorePlus preselected packages to be loaded.
The last contains 'base' which prevents packages from being loaded.
You are correct in how CorePlus is booting.
My request was for an entry that contains 'quiet waitusb-5' so that the pen-drive can be used to boot an existing tce configuration on another
drive or partition without including the contents of the cde directory.
I will just tab edit the last entry when booting.
