Good day!
I'm testing the Tiny Core, I just downloaded the coreplus version and I run into this problem: When I modify the .filetool.lst file and then I do a reboot from terminal as root the modifications are lost. I want to know how should send a reboot from terminal, I usually use the command "reboot", on linux I can use the command shutdown -r now but it doesn't exist on TC. Also this problem occurs when I use the command "poweroff". I'm planning to use SSH to supervise the TC boxes so I really would need to know how to make the changes on .filetool.lst persistent.
BTW, this problem do not occur if the reboot is done by the GUI.
I do not consider myself an expert on linux but I have been playing with it for a while (like 5 years :S)

Backup changes before reboot:
backup
It will work if you are using a persistent mode, means you have a /tce dir on a storage media like USB, HDD.
It is also a good idea to read TC core concept and FAQ.

Thank you! :D
I was about to answer myself, I found that if the command
filetool.sh -b
is used it will backup everything. I assume that the backup command is similar to the filetool.sh -b, isn't it?

backup

lol at least we think alike
Ok then, how about
backup && sudo poweroff
Or perhaps add " backup " to the shutdown script ?
