RobertS thanks for that generous way to deal with it.
I do my best to accomplish that then. It does boot
a long way so I only need to add that lst thing and the
needed tcz files in the right places then it should boot.

When I write

sudo reboot then it know what to do so to my naive take
some kind of OS is booted but seems to not know things
like ls or cd.. so that is surprising. But the splash do thell
that a lot of things work. It set up thongs like network if I get it.
Then it just wait for more things so that is what you talk about
that I need to add.

It is way above my poor grasp but it all looks promising.

I look into it tomorrow late at night here now. So thanks!

While I am not purposefully trying to cripple existing NTFS installations of Core. I did find an anomaly which I will correct before final release of 4.2.
Found. Fixed. I can now run Core 4.2 booted from existing tinycore NTFS grub4dos setup as per manually  copying files explained earlier.

Thanks, I hope it helps somebody else because I am not smart enough
to understand it. I will follow the advice and stay with 4.1 and not take
the leap to 4.2

So thanks for answering my naive questions. It was fun while it lasted
but now I have failed so many times that my stamina has run out. Exhausted
and dreary or what word express it best. 4.1 works so no need for 4.2 on my part.

oops my English are not that good at grasping too few words.

Only if I grasp how to do it?
I ahve tested some 5 times now and at or on each test
I cahnged boot codes and what was in the .lst and so on.

It always ends up with a black screen with a prompt
so it is not loading the needed files.
Sure I should download them from the link but I don't
understand where to put them so I tried to reuse things
from the 4.1 that works well.

Me being on NTFS I would need nfs-3g.tcz don't I?

I simply know too little of what is required of me.
Lack the details. So not sure what you say with these words

you can move with 4.2 ahead? Nope I can not but many others
can most likely grasp what RobertS and others here tell them to do.

I have no idea. Now I go to bed :)

the wifi extension dont start (the wifi icon is in the wbar; but by clicking on it nothing happens; nothing in dmesg). Any idea what happens here?

@floppy: please post console output from "wifi.sh".
The only barriers that can stop you are the ones you create yourself.

First I had     sh no wifi.sh
Then by putting the wifi.tcz out of ondemand and again into the ondemand menue, it is ok.
This is the same behaviour as per minefield.. and opera I am working from now. So, issue solved. a ondemand refresh seems to be necessary
