Go ahead  :)

What do you use for your grub menu lines, if you use it?

Looking at google--- slitaz uses 4 rootfs...and based on that info initrd line might read
EDIT
initrd /boot/grub/core.gz /boot/grub/rootfs.gz

I just tried the reverse line to above and got a kernel message
"modprobe chdir (3.8.10-tinycore) No such file or directory

Can your remember having in rootfs that I could easily verify has loaded?

I await your advice Sir

EDIT 2
leafpad runs fine for me

Juanito
Forgive any rudeness, but for the alpha repo, are you in charge of it?
That is, do you have the power to edit across 4.x repo dep files to fix them up for 5.x?
I am thinking of my precious SpaceFm

I have submitted firefox and seamonkey. I have a forum post in the news area asking for feedback on minefield.
I have not had a chance to look at icecat or Shiretoko but am aware of them. I looked at chromium-browser but AFAIK I would need to download 2G of source which I baulk at ATM.

Thanks for the heads up on the mc icon.

initrd /boot/grub/core.gz /boot/grub/rootfs.gz

core.gz = rootfs.gz + modules.gz
core64.gz = rootfs.gz + modules64.gz

so, using syslinux to boot:
--- Code: ---label rootfs
kernel /boot/vmlinuz
initrd /boot/rootfs.gz,/boot/modules.gz
append quiet yada-yada
--- End code ---

or grub2:
--- Code: ---menuentry "rootfs64" {
  linux /boot/vmlinuz64 quiet yada-yada
  initrd /boot/rootfs.gz /boot/modules64.gz
}
--- End code ---

or, if your boot loader does not support multiple initrd, you can use core.gz or make your own with:
--- Code: ---$ cat rootfs.gz modules.gz > core.gz
--- End code ---
