Thanks.

Please read announcements at http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php/board,69.0.html

There are separate images and repos for armv6 and armv7 (RPi2), use matching release to your board.

What do you mean full support?

Hi bmarkus!

Thanks, I was just reading them right now!

By full support I mean that everything works - lan, video, sound...

I plan to build a home file server with 2 sata HDD's - which board is recommended? CubieBoard 1, Cubie 2, Pi, Pi 2... ? All of them are expensive in my country and I have to choose the one that works best with Core.

piCore is for Raspberry Pi. It does not work on Cubies and orhers. You asked RPi2. For SATA chek Odroid boards.

So are there plans to further develop the current state of support on the raspberry pi 2?

so on both the distros (and a lot more) the only thing i get is a color pallet displayed on my screen :(
The ONLY difference i can make out is that the green working light is on.....

Any advise?
