dear fried,I hope to using tinycore on 486, is there way to compile kernel and turn core.gz as traditional rootfs on harddisk? the factory method is to load core.gz as initrd, so if run with 64M mem, factory kernel ok but no initrd.

Juanito:
You could try searching these forums on "scatter mode".

Hi youxiaojie
If it helps, this thread includes instructions on how to reduce the
size of core.gz:

I see the post, ungz using cpio to recover. does initrd/initramfs readonly or readwritable? if readonly, why usingsquashfs root file as routers did?
