CorePure-64 missing cfdisk and grub
(1/1)
Tag:
How do I install CorePure-64 onto a Hard drive? I tried getting cfdisk and grub using tce-load and no go (404). Is there a step I'm missing?
coreplayer2:
Grub2 is available in the repo
It's a little like the chicken before the egg.. but there are various ways to install
one method is you can install using the coreplus iso then download corepure64.gz (or rootfs64.gz, modules64.gz) and vmlinuz64. create the grub config entries and reboot
More info about the destination HDD would be advantageous to assist further.. (like is the drive empty? are there other partitions, etc etc..)
Another recommended very useful tool to use at the command line is " tce-ab "
