Hi,
     After I install TCL into my harddisk, I want to always start switch to text mode, not in GUI mode. I tried add text or superuser boot setting into menu.lst kernel config. but it always enter GUI mode, how should I config? Thanks.

curaga:
Could you post your menu.lst?

yong:
My menulist as following.

default 0
timeout 10
title tinycore
kernel /boot/bzImage text quiet
initrd /boot/tinycore.gz

which didn't works. then I changed as following:

default 0
timeout 10
title tinycore
kernel /boot/bzImage superuser quiet
initrd /boot/tinycore.gz

but it still didn't work.

curaga:
Two things to try:

- first see if the command "showbootcodes" shows your arguments
- if they are shown, try putting the codes after "quiet"

yong:
Thanks. it works.  ;)
I have to put after quiet argument.
