Install from live usb flash

[andfree]

Hi. I booted Tiny-Core from a live usb flash drive. How to install it to the internal hard drive of the laptop? Thanks.

Hi,
have you tried the  tc-install.tcz  extension?

[andfree]

Thanks for answer. I run Apps, ask to find the fastest mirror and get the message:

Couldn't load mirror list. Maybe network issue?

[Juanito]

I believe the repo is down

If you already downloaded the mirrors extension, you can choose another site...

[Juanito]

or, in the meantime, you can do this:

Code: [Select]

$ echo 'http://distro.ibiblio.org/tinycorelinux/' > /opt/tcemirror
..then things should work.

Thanks, it worked. But after the installation, I rebooted to hard drive and there's a black display with this:

Code: [Select]

tc@box:~$

[Juanito]

Which probably means you don't have an X server and window manager listed "onboot".

Try this:

Code: [Select]

$ tce-load -i Xvesa Xprogs flwm aterm wbar

[andfree]

Code: [Select]

Xvesa.tcz not found!

[Juanito]

..so it looks like your extensions were not saved on your hd install or it cannot find them.

You can download and save them again with "tce-load -iw..." as long as you have a network connection.

The exact command? It gives me some "Example usage" but I can't find the correct one.

Hi andfree
Try:

Code: [Select]

tce-load -iw Xvesa Xprogs flwm aterm wbar

[andfree]

Ah, the previous command with "-iw" instead of "-i".Sorry.

Code: [Select]

wget: can't connect to remote host (89.22.99.37): Connection refused
md5sum: Xvesa.tcz.md5.txt: No such file or directory
Error on Xvesa.tcz

See reply #3 and #4.

[andfree]

I' ve already followed reply #4, as I said at reply #5.

[...] I rebooted to hard drive [...]

Code: [Select]

[ "$(cat /opt/tcemirror)" == "http://repo.tinycorelinux.net/" ] && echo 'http://distro.ibiblio.org/tinycorelinux/' > /opt/tcemirror
