hello patrikg
i am little confused with syslinux conf, in my case i have extlinux.conf... i try renamed extlinux.conf to syslinux.conf with your update, but still no success to boot from drive.

my extlinux directory looking like this:
ldlinux.conf ->(my ex extlinux.conf)
ldlinux.sys
ldlinux.c32

my ldlinux.conf

--- Quote ---TIMEOUT 30
DEFAULT tinycore

MENU TITLE Boot Menu

LABEL tinycore
      MENU LABEL Tiny Core
      LINUX /boot/vmlinuzbuster64
      INITRD /boot/dCorebuster64.gz
      APPEND root=/dev/sda1 tce=sda1

--- End quote ---

kircanov:
This is my last stage


any helps will welcome...

patrikg:
Don't rename the file.
Syslinux conf file is named extlinux.conf.

So you missed some part in the syslinux conf file.
Shouldn't it be "initrd" on one line and "append" on another line with more kernel args like root=/dev/sda1 and so on.

 Something like this:

--- Code: ---TIMEOUT 30
DEFAULT tinycore

MENU TITLE Boot Menu

LABEL tinycore
      MENU LABEL Tiny Core
      LINUX /boot/vmlinuzbuster64
      INITRD /boot/dCorebuster64.gz
      APPEND root=/dev/sda1 tce=sda1
--- End code ---

--- End quote ---

Root=xxxxx is not a bootcode that I am aware of.
Can at least not find it at the homepage faq and also not in the book.

Additionally….
You already have it working from cd?
In text mode?
Why not “while running from cd” try to start x and a desktop, like flwm. Download the necessary packages from the package manager.
Also install the install tool
Than install on harddisk using the tiny core install tool.
That works like a charm and makes sure you have all recommended settings.

I basically did the same t9 get mine working.
- did took me significant effort to get the first working.
- but once I had it working making new disk and usb bootable drives was super easy.

When in textmode you can I think also just run the install tool in textmode. It’s just that the gui version works more convenient, more self explaining.
You will need to download the package though by using the apps browser which is also “not super easy” in textmode.
