Hi Juanito
There's a small problem here:
http://tinycorelinux.net/10.x/x86_64/archive/10.0/distribution_files/
The  modules64  and  the  vmlinuz64  links (including the md5) are broken:
Code: [Select]
corepure64.gz                                      09-Jun-2019 12:39            10397440
corepure64.gz.md5.txt                              09-Jun-2019 12:39                  48
modules64.gz                                       09-Jun-2019 12:39                  52
modules64.gz.md5.txt                               09-Jun-2019 12:39                  60
rootfs64.gz                                        09-Jun-2019 12:39             3595754
rootfs64.gz.md5.txt                                09-Jun-2019 12:39                  46
vmlinuz64                                          09-Jun-2019 12:39                  49
vmlinuz64.md5.txt                                  09-Jun-2019 12:39                  57

Hi labeas
....
Q: are these sizes correct/compatible:
  vmlinuzBigr   4106416
  rotofs64.gz   3595754
  modules64.gz  6826959

AFAIR there was some inconsistency in the repository IMO.

==TIA
The  rootfs64.gz  and  modules64.gz  both appear to be from TC10.0 x86_64. The  vmlinuzBigr  is from TC9.0 x86:
Code: [Select]
Index of /9.x/x86/release/distribution_files/
../
core.gz                                            19-Mar-2018 10:33             8730363
core.gz.md5.txt                                    19-Mar-2018 10:33                  42
modules.gz                                         27-Feb-2018 07:19             6000561
modules.gz.md5.txt                                 27-Feb-2018 07:19                  45
modules64.gz                                       27-Feb-2018 07:19             6448695
modules64.gz.md5.txt                               27-Feb-2018 07:19                  47
rootfs.gz                                          19-Mar-2018 10:33             2763805
rootfs.gz.md5.txt                                  19-Mar-2018 10:33                  44
vmlinuz                                            27-Feb-2018 07:19             4106416  <--------------
vmlinuz.md5.txt                                    27-Feb-2018 07:19                  42
vmlinuz64                                          27-Feb-2018 07:19             4491536
vmlinuz64.md5.txt                                  27-Feb-2018 07:19                  44
So  vmlinuzBigr  is the wrong version and it's the wrong architecture.

Try reading Juanitos instructions again:
http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php/topic,22999.msg144515.html#msg144515
This way you only have 2 files to deal with (corepure64.gz == rootfs64.gz  + modules64.gz).
You can find them here:
http://tinycorelinux.net/10.x/x86_64/release/distribution_files/
