Zero and ZeroW are armv6
Zero2W is armv7

I just searched all of the TC14 armv6 .dep and .tree files for
any instance of piCore-v7 and found nothing.
Check the .dep files in your tce directory.
Also check that these commands give the expected results:
--- Code: ---uname -r
uname -m
--- End code ---

Went over it again and discovered that I really messed up all my files. I deleted everything and downloaded everything again and now it works.
Feel very free to delete this question, unless you feel that it can help other people.
Thanks again for all your fast and very excellent replies!
Regards, Casper

I found the same about the Zero (W) but this page says that Zero 2W is armv8: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raspberry_Pi#Specifications

Hi Chau
Glad to hear you got it straightened out.
I see no reason to remove this question. It provides information
on how to check which CPU and kernel version are being used.
Paul_123:
Yes, technically it is an armv8 chip however, when running in 32bit mode, it reports as an armv7 processor. Armv8 is a 64 bit processor, and arm processors running in 64 bit mode will show up as aarch64 in the kernel.
Becuase the zero2W has only 512k RAM, I would run it in 32bit mode, as 32 bit has a smaller memory footprint.
