windows usb program
« on: March 19, 2016, 08:39:41 PM »

  hi all 

  just like to thank everyone again for making tinycore It is by far the best designed distro there is and it is the only one I use

  now for my question I tried to use the windows usb program and it was able to recognize the iso and the usb drive but the install button never activated any words of wisdom ?

  thanks in advance

I tried with 7.0 and yes can't press install button.
From help current version is 4.7.7 , maybe that the issue ?

   hi again 
 
   i see the source of this program is in python  which i dont read
   however 
   i will use dd to copy the iso to the usb 
   which is way cool anyway 
   i just wanted to inform tc team of this issue
   i will delete this thread in a few days

   thanks again  to everyone from tinycore

No need to delete the thread. There's been some previous reports of core2usb not working on Windows 10, and maybe 8, I don't remember. It would be useful if you listed your Windows version.
The only barriers that can stop you are the ones you create yourself.

I have always had to 2-click the USB stick for the Install button to activate.

     thanks newuser

     the 2 click on the usb idea worked
     i now have a tc usb made by the core2usb program
     works great  - cool
   
     a strange thing happened though
     the usb didnt load x
     when i looked at the usb i noticed that the cde directory was named tce
     i changed it to cde and x then loaded
     dont know how that could have happened
     cde is not named tce in the iso is it 
     anyway  success

     thanks tc team - fantastic work

That's what it should be. cde is only used for read-only media.

I just used core2usb on Win10 (free upgrade version) and it worked normally.
