Tiny Core Extensions > TCE Corepure64

Can I get a beginner friendly guide to installing tinycore x64 from usb?

<< < (2/3) > >>

Juanito:
..and the answer to the other two questions?

spark:
atm my bios did get corrupted trying to install different distros. I got TC installed in unsafe mode though it only loads the terminal. update : I have installed a temporary linux distro.

assume no os installed.

no cd drive.

Juanito:
If you managed to get tinycore to boot to the console prompt and you have a wired internet connection you can download a basic gui with the following commands:
--- Code: ---tce-load -wil Xorg-7.7 flwm aterm wbar
startx
--- End code ---

why tc ?
once you have a boot loader installed you can copy any distro's files (including tc ^.^)

try creating a disk image and following the above steps
then test it all works in a virtual machine (eg:qemu)
 ???
... then (if!?it?works?) consider writing the image to some physical media !

no such boot loader exists
(way OT see also .en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Microsoft_Windows_versions )

options for booting afaik include

- efi (32 or 64 bit) loader
and/or
- bios(legacy) loader

then comes the choice of partition table mbr OR gpt

any hw/config could have some combinations of the above , and perhaps if your lucky  ;) some bugs / quirks

ftr & considering
