How to debug boot problems? Black screen TinyCorePure64-15.0 and Ventoy

(1/1)

vito:
How to capture logs if any? What commands to try in order to pinpoint the root cause of unsuccessful boot of TinyCorePure64-15.0?

Steps:
  1. Select TinyCorePure64-15.0 iso in Ventoy menu
  2. Choose any option: boot normal, grub or memdisk
  3. Choose any option, e.g. tc.

Actual result:
  Black screen, nothing happens after pressing any key.

Expected result:
  Successful boot and shell command line.

Environment: laptop Dell XPS 15, 11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-11400H, 16 GB RAM, USB, FAT32 file system, GPT, UEFI. Ventoy 1.0.99

TeMaToS:
is there some results before black screen?

idk how to do it exactly, but u can decompress os image and search for files which has boot instructions.

I have HP 820 G3 and only GUI mode not working by default. But I made it work by installing regular X.org pkg and additional intel drivers and executing custom shell script at boot time by including it in bootlocal file, there i install each of that pkg, but there is default file with list of needed pkgs at boot if it is fine for you to hold them in opt/.

mocore:
...perhaps try 14.x core 64 ?

 perhaps they have `a homogenous mixture of two or more substances in relative amounts`
