In the white line you can specify the boot options separated by space.
If you have pre made partitions in step 1 you will have a choice sda1, sda2, sda3… or sdb1, sdx2, sdb3,… or other name.
If you did whole dis ar step 1 you only can choose sda1, sdb1 ot other name. You know the name as the disk name is shown in step 1.

Note: you can change these later in the tce/boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf file

I think there is a problem with this distribution. Does not format.
Gets stuck on formatting.
It makes the disk unreadable for me, but does not complete the formatting. There is no error, no error is displayed. But after 10 minutes, nothing happens. The disk is also small 15GB. With other distributions no problem. They format which is a beauty.
What can I do?

The distributions that I have installed without problems are Slitaz and Q4OS. They formatted and installed everything without any problems.
I would like to specify that as a disk, there is an IDE adapter with a Compact Flash, this is to make reading and writing faster than the mechanical disk. It shouldn't be a problem, because in the past Windows 95 to Windows 2000 installed without problems. As installed the two Linux distributions without problems too.

NarakuITA:
So, I solved it via GParted. I created two partitions one to install Tiny Core and the other swap. Installation completed and reboot.
Here's the first problem, it doesn't boot, even though I selected to install the Bootloader, it doesn't seem to have it installed. How do you install it so that the operating system can boot? For now I have to use what I have on the floppy.

Stefann:
Should boot.
Is bootorder in bios correct?
 The only other thing I can think of is that the “disk clean” was incomplete.
You could try to thorowly whipe it with fdisk.
create new partition table with the o command
After that create new partitions

The install tool itself works pretty good in my experience.
