It's like no one asks about anything( i need to keep my questions public)!!the distro is great,i'd say amazing,works out-of-the-box on all  hardware i have ;and not single user before me asked about android/ios/javame2 support ,not even noobs(a piece of me)!!That's completely strange for my understanding.

Whenever you ask politicians of simplest questions they get picky all of the sudden

I'm not sure, but idevicebackup seems to have superceded libirecovery.

The instructions to compile libimobiledevice, which provides idevicebackup, are here:

http://tinycorelinux.net/5.x/x86_64/tcz/src/libimobiledevice/compile_libimobiledevice

..you just need to substitute "-march=i486 -mtune=i686" for "-mtune=generic" and you're good to go.

The extension making and submission guidelines are in the wiki.

The main question : why not make CUSTOM package that would include all cuties to make iPhones work on-start(not option like onDemand) of OS - everything that makes ios managements easy  :o  on windows(itunes).

Towards the bottom of here:

http://www.libimobiledevice.org/

..there is a table showing the iPad/Phone/Pod functionality provided by libimobiledevice - is this what you mean?

I just noticed libimobiledevice is also in the x86 repo - maybe you could try with that  :P

..and maybe this helps:

Because no such person exists who has all that hw and the interest to do so.
The only barriers that can stop you are the ones you create yourself.
