v16.0 bug and fix -ash missing ']' on bootup
« on: April 04, 2025, 01:45:12 PM »
I've been running 16.0beta1 and now 16.0 release and noticed a bug when using 'quiet', 'showapps' and 'pause' as boot parameters.  Right after "Loading extensions..." ash complains about a missing ']'

The error is on Line 63 of '/usr/bin/tce-setup' in 'core.gz':

Code: [Select]
[ -f "$MOUNTPOINT"/"$TCE_DIR"/"$TARGETLIST"] || touch "$MOUNTPOINT"/"$TCE_DIR"/"$TARGETLIST"
FIX: Add a space after the quote before the first closing bracket

Thanks for the welcome!  I noticed my old 'core.gz' file, maybe from 16.0beta1 (???) that had 'onboot.lst' instead of "$TARGETLIST" on that line so the bug might have been introduced recently

BTW I've actually been a TinyCore user since v6.4.1.  Ran my file server and kids' team websites on an eeePC 701 entirely on a 128MB CF card for years (internal SSD was toast), and also have a Pi Model A running v13.0 supplying the guide data to my DVR since about 2020.

It's still my portable O/S of choice - always in my pocket on a USB flash drive.
