Prepack index

danielibarnes:
Users need to the ability to:
1) Know they need a "prepack" to accomplish their particular goal, and
2) Know which one they need.

The tc-install prepack is documented in the readme, but a formal index file of some sort and a walk-through would be helpful for new users. For example, when someone visits the home page for the first time with the intent of installing Tiny Core, how can they determine they need this prepack and find out what to do with it?

Guy:
Minor changes can be made to the installation guides in the wiki to explain how to use the tc-install prepack.

However, if a person goes to the home page, and clicks on Installation, they don't go to the wiki index. I think this link should be redirected so it goes to the wiki index. Now that the installer has been improved, using it is the easiest way to install Tiny Core.

If the team wants to use information from the wiki to update the official installation guide, that is another option.


As for nettools, again, have a well documented explanation of how to use it in the wiki.

roberts:
OK. Good idea. Please post specific Wiki links here. I then will update webpage.
And many thanks for your contributions!

Guy:
It is probably best to go to the wiki index, as there are many different pages on installation, and they are at the top of the index.

http://wiki.tinycorelinux.net/

or

http://wiki.tinycorelinux.net/wiki:start

If you think it should be done differently, let me know.

There is an Installation link on all of the pages of the main website. They should all be updated.

roberts:
We already have a link to the Wiki on all web pages and forum.
What I would be looking for is detailed instructions on how to use the prepack as a recommended way to install Tiny Core for a new user.

Same would need to be done for configuring undetected net access devices, i.e., specifically using the prepack.

Probably best to post link here first. Get feedback and perform updates before official web pages link to them.
