Start X?

I found this out: The problem was that I was using Ventoy to create the bootable USB stick. With Ventoy it only booted to command line.
With Balena Etcher I could actually start the desktop environment.

--- Code: ---  1. jwm.tcz
  2. Xfbdev-jwm-desktop.tcz
  3. Xorg-jwm-desktop.tcz
  4. Xvesa-jwm-desktop.tcz
--- End code ---

chose 4
press q
press i
and then startx

If you use 64-bit TC version for x86 then Xvesa-jwm-desktop.tcz will be not available.

If you want long answer, then tell us what window manager you choose in TinyCorePlus.iso?

Rich:
Hi youxiaojie
xfbdev  and  xvesa  are both lightweight.  xfbdev  might be a little faster.
