Juanito you did not misunderstood.
It is I who express things in confusing ways .My brain screw up.
I do apology. I did it all too hastely but after some fruitless attempts
I finally seems to get a bit of what is required. Not perfect yet, I have
a long way to go but I am booted in 4.2 and using ntfs-3g.tcz most likely
and can edit files on the NTFS internal hdd. I am booted from a Fat32
1GB USB pin. I make use of the coreplus.iso and use core.gz
and have renamed cde to be tce and have tried to move over files
from the old 4.1 but that did not go well I have to start all over with Firefox
which is new now installed FF9 instead of the old 3.6.12 that I tried to move over.
So I trust that RobertS has written somewhere that one do need to dowload
all extensions again? That is my what my poor memory tells me. I can be wrong though.
I fail to get VLC going but Viewnior worked after new install. So I guess should delete the VLC and
try to start over . I would like a list of all the dependencies I should delete
Not sure what to do with the Backup save file. It works on the old 4.1 but maybe will only
mess up a 4.2 so I should rename that one and make a new backup.
Anyway. Thanks for your patience with my messed up behavior. This is what I barely get how to
so I fail again and again. But it feel good when it finally at least work even if some things need to
be tidied up like VLC.

You sound familiar, newbody ;) You're not one of those masters of that Tasmanian beta, are you? That Debian-based Meow Linux, or whatever it's called?

I am not a Master of MeowDebianLinux :) I am more like a noob who try to get
what it is all about and totally fails at it. Sickgut is friendly enough to let me
be one of the admirers. I should not write so often in that thread.
Now lately I've read about Core having this new thing named SCM.
As predicted I barely get what they write about it. But it is interesting to follow.
But if you refer to Nooby over at Puppy that is Newbody here though :)

You're being modest - you're the guy who first found a way to do a frugal install with Meow!
I recently downloaded Beta 2 from thepussycatforest.info, but I've been too busy trying to understand Tiny Core to play with the kitty. If I can get over the learning curve, I think TC may be what I've been looking for, but I'm still curious about sickgut's project.

I recognized your accent ;)

Thanks, I find Tiny Core to be very interesting but I totally fail to get
the descriptions on how to get them going. And now AFAIK RobertS
got very tired of messing with NTFS so he gave up on it.
So I guess I have to use USB if I want to learn about the SCM ways to
get an app. I know too little but they do reminds me of SFS in Puppy?
Do you get how them differ?
Are you sure I where first? Did not sickgut tell me how to do it?
But I maybe are first to get Ubuntu iso booting with permissions to
write to the ntfs drive that it boot from. But that is to cheat.
They don't want us to cheat as I do. So don't tell them :)
