I'm using an Intel board, onboard video and ethernet with a Celeron processor. It's hooked up to a Viewsonic 19" crt monitor.
Tinycore 1.4.3 - If I boot without an option, I get video, with 1024x768x32 resolution. Using boot option 789 for 800x600x24 does nothing. XvesaSetup doesn't work, only wrecks the mouse. So, I have to edit .xsession to get the resolution I want. No problem here, but are there others?
Tinycore 2.1 - Forget it. All I can get is a blur of a screen with a faint cursor that won't move.
Tinycore 2.2 - Doesn't recognize the ethernet connection.
Apparently, there are considerable differences between these versions.
The other night, using version 1.43, I tried three times to install to hard drive using instructions from this site. In each case, all seemed to go well until I tried to boot. Result, error 15, something about not finding bzImage.
And so, ........................
