Just booted fine for me.
It looks quite complete, now!
I finally removed the two debugs added by me to tc-config:
--- Code: ---SHOWAPPS=1
--- End code ---
and
--- Code: ---# while [ ! -e /dev/rtc0 ]; do usleep 50000; done
--- End code ---
And it still worked: this should be the original tc-config file working.
The (hopefully) only remaining problem is the error given by mkswap /dev/zram0, which was also in my release.
I found it can be solved by a preliminar
--- Code: ---echo 33554432 > /sys/block/zram0/disksize
--- End code ---
.
Now I wonder why it's not needed in x86 Core?! Maybe there was a default size of /dev/zram0 in 3.0.21 which is no longer in 3.0.39?
Anyway, some reasonable value for /sys/block/zram0/disksize should be probably devised to be set by tc-config script.
Here http://pclosmag.com/html/Issues/201107/page12.html 25% of free memory is suggested.
curaga:
There was a bug in zram in 3.0 at least, we have a patch for it. It's also fixed in upstream, but I'm not sure which versions have the fix.
(The docs state that lacking the disksize echo, it defaults to 25% of RAM. This didn't work in 3.0)

Robert, I think your busybox has dns-related issues.
I have /etc/resolv.conf, and no dhcp server running.
I can't ping neither wget nor traceroute any server name, only IPs.
On the other hand, using another busybox, I can.
Could be a bug in more recent busybox, or the build configuration or who knows what.
Anyone can reproduce this?
roberts:
What version of busybox and would need its config file.

The problematic busybox is the one included in
http://distro.ibiblio.org/tinycorelinux/4.x/arm/armv7/a10Core-20120827.img.gz
I wonder if you used http://distro.ibiblio.org/tinycorelinux/4.x/x86/release/src/busybox-1.19.2-config to build it.
The working one is this:
http://www.busybox.net/downloads/binaries/1.17.2/busybox-armv6l
Not sure about whether I could get the corresponding config file.
