TinyCore Install on a HP Laptop - GRUB - ISO boot
Juanito:
You will need to either boot the iso from a different partition or install tinycore to a different partition.
Load the wifi extension for WiFi.
Consult the libinput man pages for how to configure touchpads.

I am booting TC..ISO from /dev/sda8. i.e.
Specified /dev/sda9 to be Install partition for TinyCore.
Installer expects that all partitions on sda should be dis-mounted.
RYTCL:
I copied the 'TinyCorePure64-11.1.iso' to a USB disk and modified the Grub menu to point to /dev/sdb1 and load the ISO from there.
I was able to complete the Install into the Partition /dev/sdb9.
Added the following GRUB entry where TinyCore is the LABEL for partition SDA9.
--- Code: ---menuentry 'TinyCore 11.1 - ISO Loopback' {
set root=(hd0,gpt9)
echo '..... Loading TinyCore 11.1 VMLINUZ64 .....'
linux /tce/boot/vmlinuz64 waitusb=5 loglevel=5 showapps pause tce=LABEL=TinyCore
echo '..... Loading TinyCore 11.1 COREPURE64 .....'
linux /tce/boot/corepure64.gz
echo '..... Booting TinyCore 11.1 .....'
}
--- End code ---
I am booting into GUI Window environment.
