vscodium in tinycore, from chroot to docker

(1/7) > >>

vinnie:
Does anyone have a guide on how to start tinycore in chroot from another distro, maybe even graphically?
I am totally inexperienced but would be curious to try it.

hi, you just need few folders (/bin /lib /proc /sys) and few mounts on them; plus a shell (static linked busybox is best)no need for a kernel; just the binaries and their *.so.* dependencies.
on x64 CPU you can have chroot for 32 bits also.what matters is a shell, libc and the apps.

I have to go to sleep now but I looked at your links and I can tell you:
I am also an alpine user
About the chroot I tried to follow their guide once, succeeding but not understanding much of what I did.

I also tried junest but there were some problems that I don't remember now.
I realize I may need to read something simpler to get started, if you have any resources to recommend I appreciate it :)

nick65go:
oh, come on! more simple than to extract an already-made a miniroot filesystem?

or this one: http://landley.net/toybox/downloads/binaries/mkroot/latest/x86_64.tgz

vinnie:
Eh ok, I'm good at decompressing things, think I can also remember tar parameter by heart, but I lack all the other notions for chroot.
I found this guide and I can try with alpine, however I didn't want to enter chroot of alpine but of tinycore, I searched on the forum and there are several posts about it, maybe after I succeed with alpine and get some confidence I'll try to rejoin the posts on the forum.
