This points to 1) inconsistencies in your Syslinux config and 2) changes in the default install/search folders for TC. Forcing the search folder or fully aligning with the current patterns would have likely solved this.
If you move the extlinux/ directory to sda1:tce/boot/ then run 'extlinux -u /mnt/sda1/tce/boot/extlinux/' then update config file references appropriately, this will solve your issue. You can also watch the return value of the installer extlinux by doing something like 'echo $?' immediately afterwards. 0 is success.

I've been getting some practice in updating more frugal systems from tc4.1 to tc4.4rc1 lately. So far the most reliable method has been to make backups of filetool.lst and onboot.lst, then load up the latest tc-install and use that tool to install to an existing partition (using install boot loader option) and copy over new tcz's. After a reboot delete the existing boot directory and append the new filetool and onboot files as necessary from the old backed up versions and reboot.
I forgot something, run the tc-update and/or AppsAudit updates.
Also from 4.2 just realised these files needed updating. Since they are not in a backup only a permanent store, deleted them and rebooted.
.setbackground
.profile
.xsession
Not sure if I missed any other files?
Things are looking up now !
