Tiny Core Extensions > TCE Tips & Tricks
Extension netfilter vs. iptables vs. ipv6-something?
GNUser:
Hi, sbrunthaler. The extension-installing scripts use the functions in /etc/init.d/tc-functions. It seems the getMirror function uses the getMajorVer function, which in turn parses the file /usr/share/doc/tc/release.txt.
It seems your /usr/share/doc/tc/release.txt file somehow does not match the TCL version that you're using. I'm not sure how that could happen, but I'd start there.

iirc the main reason tc doesn't work out of the box on this machine is because of serial console setting being hardcoded in our rootfs
if you make your own iso you can change that.

Also take a look in /opt/tcemirror. The URL used to download extensions is built based on contents of /opt/tcemirror, /usr/share/doc/tc/release.txt, and output of uname -m.

Checked that, version info is set correctly and the correct URL is being used. But my description was not complete:
The problem is that the iptables.tcz.dep file says "netfiler-KERNEL.tcz" and this leads to that:
Downloading: netfilter-4.2.9-tinycore.tcz
Connecting to repo.tinycorelinux.net (89.22.99.37:80)
wget: server returned error: HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
md5sum: netfilter-4.2.9-tinycore.tcz.md5.txt: No such file or directory
There is only a version netfilter-3.16.6-... in the repository.
Sorry that I did not describe this correctly beforehand.

You're running some frankenstein setup it seems. You have a TC 7.x kernel but are otherwise using TC 6.x.
Try downloading the 4.2.9 kernel extensions from the 7.x repo manually. The other way, pointing your install to the 7.x repo, would probably break things.
