Core v4.4rc3
coreplayer2:
While booting PLOP Boot Manager from a cd to boot TinyCore-4.4rc3.iso using YUMI from a multiboot USB (this specific machine can neither boot USB or any version of tc using isolinux version 4.x ) I've failed in all but one time, to find and mount sdb1 using "fromISOfile" with bootcode or after boot using YUMI as described, short method or full path yet still unable to find or mount /mnt/sdb1/multiboot/ISOS/TinyCore-4.4rc3.iso
Using either
sudo fromISOfile /mnt/sdb1
or
sudo fromISOfile /mnt/sdb1/multiboot/ISOS/TinyCore-4.4rc3.iso
the script complains that it can't find either in fstab which incidentally only contains /dev/sda1 and /dev/sr0 + a few other non pertinent entries..
Any ideas what we're missing here?
Update: the key was in using something like " sudo fromISOfile /sr0 " which then mounted the tc.iso to /mnt/cdrom
coreplayer2:
The next gotcha, is trying to establish a wifi connection. wireless-3.0.3-tinycore.tcz is installed to cde/optional
You know this is coming.. the latest TinyCore-4.4rc3 needs wireless-3.0.21-tinycore.tcz to function
please :)
AbNoRMiS:
there is missing checksum cde/optional/wireless-3.0.21-tinycore.tcz.md5.txt in CorePlus-4.4rc3.iso

isolinux 3.82 and 3.84 continue to boot fine.

Please report this bug to syslinux, if you haven't already.

no problems with a dual PIII 700MHz (BX chipset) with AMI BIOS and booting via PloP from an USB stick the CorePlus-4.4rc3.iso image with iso=sdb1 ...
PS: take care that there is no other iso image on the stick, otherwise you have to specify the full name and path to the iso (see also: http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php/topic,12724.msg69967.html#msg69967)
