Tiny Core Base > piCore Final Releases
piCore 5.1 released
Gerrelt:
Hi Bela,
Thank you for this release! The SSH version is very welcome again. 8)
I installed it on 3 Raspberries, and everything is working.
At first I had some problems extending the partition, but that was mainly due to my limited knowledge of partitioning.
The included README is very good, the part of extending the partition was very usefull.
I noticed the tce dir is now in the second partition allready in the SSH image, very good!
I discovered some typo's in the README. I hope you don't mind that I corrected it, and I also changed item 1 about starting the fdisk command (at line 78) a bit.
Owh, and I think in item 2, there is an error, it should say "exit fdisk with 'w' command." instead of "q", I think.
I have attached my version of the README to this post.
Many thanks for your work!
Greetings,
Gerrelt.

Hi Gerrelt
thanks a lot for README text corrections, it is welcome and I will update WEB and download files. Glad to hear you like the new layout. Now mmcblk0p1 is really just for boot and left intact during operation avoiding false use making system more safe. At first expanding may look a bit complicated but in fact it is not so bad :) I was thinkg to make it automatic but later dropped idea to keep flexibility and user control. It is TC-like now.
Regards... Bela

Hi bmarkus!
Very nice job! Works like a charm. I've just been able to connect two machines to enable parallellprocessing. For that I used the Raspbian distro but really TC for Pi would probably be faster in executing code. I'm just not used to the webbrowsers available for TC for Pi just yet to download what I need. An idea popped up when I was considering the problem. Wouldn't it be possible to repack Iceweasel (that is awailable for the Raspberry Pi) so it could be used with TC for Pi with a script? I'm not a script kiddie so I wouldn't be able to make it but I thought it was worth to mention.
Thanks for making TC awailable for the awesome Rapberry Pi,
meo
PS The Thanks should be directed to the whole team working on this project including Robert S. DS

First thanks Robert for concept and architecting Tiny Core Linux, the TC Team for common TC scripts, ideas, packages, etc.
And to the community contributing to the whole TC project, including piCore!

Issue is the dependency chain. In general Raspbian apps depend on much more libs than necessary and/or available in piCore which is cleaner. But you can try.
