microcore install
« on: June 29, 2010, 12:51:26 PM »
do we just follow the same install steps for microcore as those for tinycore?

if so, what's the command line args for Appbrowser (needed to install cfdisk and grub)?

tce-load -wi cfdisk grub-0.97-splash

Replace tinycore.gz with microcore.gz where applicable, though.
The only barriers that can stop you are the ones you create yourself.

Supported network controllers will be configured automatically using dhcp in both tinycore and microcore.

hrm...so it does!

something must have been wrong before, loose cable or something.  My tinycore was getting an IP but my microcore was not.

fixed now...thanks.

Hi, Any chance of putting this in the Tinycore installation page:
http://tinycorelinux.com/install.html#1_Obtaining_cfdisk_and_GRUB_via_Appbrowser

tce-load -wi cfdisk grub-0.97-splash

Replace tinycore.gz with microcore.gz where applicable, though.

would save alot of time.

Am having wonderful time BTW making this, great fun.

Installation guide updated for microcore users as suggested.
