Stuck at tc@box:$
Juanito:
You need to click on the "refresh" button on the mnttool after plugging in the usb stick.
The "default audio device cannot be used" message probably means that sound is not set up - did you load the alsa extension and use alsamixer to un-mute the master volume?

Thanks for the reply.
Couldn't find alsa extension in apps or scm apps, did find alsa mixergui.tcz. Upon installation the mixer said: " function snd_ctl_open failed for default. no such file or directory "
Also installed alsa modules 3.0.21 tinycore64 but no change.
Changed audio output in vlc to alsa but it went back to saying " the default device cannot be used ".
Still cannot find secondary hard drive partiton and no sign of usb hard drive. Will these be in mnt folder.
Many thanks. John
Juanito:
alsa-modules-3.0.21-tinycore64 would normally be used in corepure64 version 4.x.
Are you using the CorePlus-6.4.1 iso? Are you using the apps gui to load modules?
If so, loading the alsa extension would automatically load the alsa-modules-3.16.6-tinycore extension.
Note also that scm extensions are only for dCore, so I am not sure how or why you were looking at those.
Once mounted using the mnttool gui, all hd, cd/dvd, usb sticks, etc will appear under /mnt.
You might find the tinycore book useful:

Man you guys don't know how much i appreciate this help.
THANK YOU!!!
I don't know if it is 6.4.1, i downloaded it from here: http://tinycorelinux.net/faq.html#pendrives and it said " coreplus current 65mb "
and i downloaded core2usb from the same page
How do i download the alsa extension,i can't find it in the list of modules.
Many thanks.
Juanito:
To work with extensions use the apps gui - the icon that looks like a screw head with an arrow pointing down.
To find out which version you are using, open a terminal window and type:
--- Code: ---$ version
$ uname -a
--- End code ---
Note also that you can download and load extensions from a terminal window as follows:
--- Code: ---$ tce-load -w alsa [to download]
$ tce-load -i alsa [to load]
--- End code ---
