hello everyone.. its been almost a week .. i am working around with tinycore , its interesting.. my first linux officially i could say.. :)
so now --
 i have installed tinycore linux in this disk even when i had 2 other empty partitions 10gb sized . the tc install from its frugal installation selected the whole drive (because selected partition gives usb mount error) installed tiny core linux i it.   

now i want to resize this system files .. the tinycore linux os from 10-15 gb . leaving everything else unallocated to be allocated to any disk format i want if all its possible.

then reading some ai and forums and a help from a person -- resize2fs was done -- it was successful , booted all well.. the linux system was at left side when i saw it in gparted or diskgenius
 then no replies .. i lost my patience.. i moved the linux section ( i dont see it as some separate partition may be it was.. it dint seem like tho) to far right from left -- then clicked clear to unallocated space .
unallocated space was available ..could be seen in windows .. but due to moving obviously -- the linux came out "boot error " and nothing else it shows..
so start and end is changed a lot.. some said its data corruption.. google ai said to make it visible with some codes.. i could not do much far in that  ..

so is there a tinycore boot error fixer ? thanks for reading ..

my idea was to do this -  keep tinycore linux in a disk , and other space unallocated to whatever size or format i would make it in future.. please give me instructions according to this..

the problem wiht tinycore instalation tc install gui -- its giving me usb mouting error if i select install on a selected partition instead of whole disk ..

i am using ventoy with TinyCorePure64-14.0.iso as 470 driver worked in it as per "getting the kernel " section .

UPDATE - this crazy linux underwent hell to heaven to earth lol !

first resize happend - sucess- it worked !

then i moved it to extreme right plus clearing unallocated space plus creating ntfs in windows - boot error in linux .

then credit goes to https://www.reddit.com/user/polymath_uk/ -- deleted the ntfs and moved back from right to left --- crazy thing lives breaths lol !

forgot to mention - while deleting ntfs partition-- the diskgenius stoped working and crashed.. the drive showed zero space in it ! -- then i played around recovering partition and i saw these files and saved the partition and heart beats again ! --- today is a damm crazy day for me lol
