Apps in HDD
« on: March 10, 2019, 12:12:21 PM »
Hello.

Maybe it's a stupid question, but I want to ask you.

Is it possible to install apps on sda1? Because when I was installing some apps in TCL (for example Chromium), it worked slowely or sometimes was frozen.

I will be grateful for you.

You can install it to any disk, I do. :)

Perhaps I read your post wrongly, I am saying that I installed TC to my HDD, on there, I make my /home & /opt run from the HDD.

These are the options I use when installing - norestore - /opt=sda1 - laptop - /home=sda1 - lang=en - kmap=qwerty/uk

Then I remove opt & home from /opt/filetool.lst - & remove waitusb=5 from extlinux

Need to install kmaps.tcz - (& I install flit.tcz to monitor my laptop battery state - add it to your .xsession file).

Then add sudo loadkmap < /usr/share/kmap/qwerty/uk.kmap to .profile.

.......& that should have you up & running from a HDD.
AMD, ARM, & Intel.

Hello Ruslik

Try page 47/48 of the Core Book  http://tinycorelinux.net/book.html for more information

Use the bootcode method then TC will only use TCE directory specified, regardless of what media it is installed to.
