hiro:
Yeah, abstract, theoretical idealism. I didn't even know the contents of install-tools.
I will stop talking now and try to do something practical, too :)

interesting that it has ntfs now. Sadly I am computer challenged. Does this mean that it now will boot using this menu.lst on ntfs hdd?
Edit Sorry so typical of my ADHD. I fail to look at text long enough to really get what it say.
look what a naive error I made tce/boot/bzimage it should naturall be this tce/boot/bzImage
Nemas problemas it booted right away and could read my hdd having NTFS too and I downloaded
Chromium but that one failed to log in here your forum server saying me had not allowed for your cookies but being as computer challenged I am I spent a 15 minutes and fail to find the cookie thing on Chromium so I dl the FF instead and write from within TCL 3.7 now.
So thanks indeed for this feature to use TCL in frugal install even on NTFS without having to resize and to create partition .
Have waited a long time for this. Now I only have to learn how to do root so I can save changes to menu.lst Had no permission it says.
Should I do su name of editor? It does not say what the name is of editor.
It does not say what password there is for root either. Maybe the FAQ has it.
oh RobertS suggests this
$ sudo -s

I have to try it right away. failed to work for me. Could that be due to me booting frugally on NTFS then?
Oh I get it. I have to do sudo editor which opens editor as root.
But the NTFS is set as read only so I can not save the changes so I need to do something in cli that makes it read write. Back to search.

find --set-root --ignore-floppies /tce/boot/bzImage
kernel /tce/boot/bzImage vga=792
initrd /tce/boot/tinycore.gz
I use this one to load and boot SvOlli remix but would be cool to be able to load and boot the official one too.
title TinyCore Remix by SvOlli 3.4.1 with ntfs-3g
root (hd0,2)
kernel /tceSvOlli/release/bzImage tinycore noswap syslog kmap=qwerty/fi-latin9
initrd /tceSvOlli/release/tinycoreplus.gz
Guy:
to get a root editor type
sudo editor

Guy thanks that is exactly what I did but as I get it one also need to change the read only NTFS to read and write which it may not be automatically.
Change log:
* New added kernel module for NTFS to base, allows read access to NTFS partition.
* Updated rebuildfstab now supports NTFS-3g when ntfs-3g extension is loaded allows read-write access.
it supports it but does that also apply to how I booted using frugal install on same sda3 as being what one boot from.
Thanks for caring about me
Guy:
An idea for the future - as time permits - if not too difficult
I don't know how difficult it would be to include additional code in the installer so perl5.tcz is not needed. If that could be done, it would be realistic to remove the installer from the base.
If it is too difficult, don't worry.
Just my thoughts.
