Title: tc-install.tcz package missing
Post by: fighne on January 20, 2015, 06:34:19 AM

Hi, tried to use the corepure64-6.0.iso but the I cannot find the tc-install.tcz package. I'm sure I can find a way to move the tc-install script from the the 32 bit directory, but it would help other user's if this was in place.
Regards Pete

The tc-install script would need to me modified to work with corepure64, but what you can do is use it to install 32-bit core and then copy the corepure64 files over and create a suitable additional menu entry.

This is a major showstopper for me as well. And still holds be back with 6.1.
How that copy should happen from the ISO image, anyway?

Loop mount the iso and copy the files.

All of them? Something like "sudo cp -a /mnt/isodir /"?

Core is just 2 files.  The vmlinuz and the initrd file.
Do the 32 bit install of core only - no extensions.
Then copy over the 2 64 bit core files and edit the syslinux config file to load them.
Boot and install desired extensions.
