Guy:
Mark Partition Active (bootable) is working.

The installer is getting better and better.

jur:
Slightly OT: Of you are setting up a multi-boot scenario, and say Win is not on the primary (bootable) partition, and selecting Makeactive for that boot stanza, will render your PC unbootable next time round, since the bootable partition is now different from what contains the bootloader.

Guy:
There is a warning to only make the partition active, if Tiny Core is the only operating system.

floppy:
Great, the wallpaper of my sweet home place is again there after boot.
