Awesome. WIFI works. thank you very much people. I shall write it up later. :) but..

I installed tinycore according to the install instructions, installed the wireless extensions and then rebooted and the wireless exetensions have disappeared. if I type iwconfig I just get "sh: iwconfig not found"

ok, sorted that out by adding tce=sda1 boot option to kernel line.

im a little confused over changing things like opt/bootlocal.sh, every change I make dissappears after reboot

I seem to have /opt and /mnt/sda1/opt as well

Do you have a backup/restore defined? If so the /opt/bootlocal.sh is included in a normal backup.

in menu.lst i put

kernel /boot/bzImage quiet tce=sda1 local=sda1 restore=sda1 home=sda1

is that right?

if I change /opt/bootlocal.sh and reboot, the changes have still disappeared.

Try adding waitusb=5 to your options.
