Hi, i have problem with tinycore, perhaps it needs some specific settings but ..
when i boot from virtual CD, everything works, but i can't see any other disks, only sr0 as a CDROM.
i have tried to make different types of harddrives, IDE, SATA .. still tinycore can't see them.
what i should do ? thank you very much.
EDIT: damn, sorry for wrong forum

Your description is not detailed enough to give you any specific advice, so I can only wildly guess that you've created a new virtual disk, attached it to the VM (either to a SATA or IDE controller) and booted the VM from the CD-ROM (i.e. a TC ISO-image).
Of course with this scenario I won't be able to "see" the disks at that very stage via my "usual" method (which would be blkid /dev/[hs][dr]*). But using fdisk -l or dmesg | grep '[hs][dr][0-9a-z ]' would give me plenty of confirmation that the (virtual) disk is present. Bear in mind that a disk typically needs a partition table and formatting of that partition for it to more prominently "show up".

Hi, thanks,
yes, you are right, with fdisk, i can see my disk at it says, partition table is invalid :) that's nice, at least, i can create table and it will be ok.
thank you maro, and sorry for my not so specific information, i am learning linux :)
