How to install dcore

(1/6) > >>

kircanov:
I'm new to this.. Can someone explain the dcore installation procedure to me in detail. I create a VM on Proxmox with a 10GB disk, I boot the installation through netboot.xyz, I select dcore. Now how to create a partition and how much. How to copy boot and from where? Also cat /etc/fstabsudo doesn't work, with mount /mnt/sr0 I don't see files. Can anyone describe a full installation with netboot.xyz and Proxmox.

Hi kircanov
Welcome to the forum.

I've never used dcore so the best I can offer is the Wiki:
https://wiki.tinycorelinux.net/doku.php?id=dcore:welcome

This appears to be the section that covers installation options.

kircanov:
I have visited these links and can tell that many installation steps are missing. It's more like they're just main commands. There is no TC support on the internet, much less on the official site, I just can't figure it out. That's why I asked in detail if anyone has been in Linux for a long time and knows how to install dCore on proxmox via netboot.xyz. I found some commands but I can't understand what is the size of the partition that I create through fdisk. Admittedly, I don't have much experience with fdisk under a terminal. I found a link for VM installation in VirtualBox, but I'm not using CDROM, I'm using netboot. Otherwise, I want to try dCore with a desktop because it supports packages from ubuntu and debian, and the size is small to use more images on my home proxmox server.

Hi kircanov
I took a quick look at:
http://tinycorelinux.net/dCore/x86_64/release/dCore-stretch64/

It sounds like you just want the files needed for booting.

That would be the kernel:
http://tinycorelinux.net/dCore/x86_64/release/dCore-stretch64/vmlinuz-stretch64

And the initrd. You mentioned you want a desktop, which should be in here:
http://tinycorelinux.net/dCore/x86_64/release/dCore-stretch64/dCorePlus-stretch64.gz

Sorry, can't help with proxmox or netboot.xyz. I only run on real
hardware booting from local storage.

Personally, I avoid using fdisk myself. I see no reason to memorize or lookup
cryptic commands for a task I don't perform very often, especially since I use
a desktop.

If I need to do any partition operations, I use gparted. I have no interest in
dealing with cylinders, heads, sectors, or blocks on that level if I don't have to.

While it is still your responsibility to point gparted at the correct device, options
like sizing, format type, labels, partition flags, etc  are at least easy to specify.
