I am using it on SD card.
although I chose to download apps
Download to the directory I want is not done.

Normally an sd card appears as /mnt/mmcblk0p1 or similar - what is your sd card called by tinycore?

Hi xor,
I suggest checking your drives as there are 4 drives in total (sda2,3; sdb1; sdc1; sr0(CD-ROM)).
-
it only offers these options.

I write to run from iso to usb
I want the applications to be added to (cde >> optional) directory.
but this writes the downloaded files to (tce >> optional) directory. ! :(
this is not intervened here.

Hi xor,
Until you get a better reply, try this :
mount your drive
sudo rm -rf /etc/sysconfig/tcedir
sudo ln -s (path to folder where you want the downloads) /etc/sysconfig/tcedirNote that you should not include the ending "/" in the above path
I don't know if it works but this is what I do when I use the base bootcode and load tcz in my tce32 folder (it actually defaults to tce directory which is non existent).
-
the issue here is not a personal folder selection!
A shortcoming within the TCL distribution's own application installer
Failure to redirect as desired
in other words, a thoughtlessness error that can be regarded as a bug in the technical sense
In this respect, APPs application needs to be updated.

Hi xor,
Well that is called personal folder selection. I also remember hearing in forums that "cde directory is not writable". Try changing the folder name "cde -> tce".
The apps program doesn't have a manual path entry thing. The apps doesn't scan for any tce folder. It just creates one if it is not there. I hope it would be implemented soon.

Tinycore assumes cde/optional = cd/dvd = read only - this is why you cannot add extensions to cde/optional
Tinycore also assumes iso = read only - this is why you should remaster if you wish to add extensions to it
You are, of course, welcome to try whatever you like, but it will not be supported officially.
As already suggested, why not install tinycore to your sd card and boot directly from it rather than from an iso?
-
I cannot change the settings I selected! :(
/ mnt / sda2 I chose this
system always opens accordingly
now i can't change this
how can I change this!
where is the file where the changes are saved
How can I fix !?

Hi xor,
Do this and don't click on "Set". You will see your path.

I seem to recall that you can use "sudo tce-setup" if you want to return to a normal boot after booting with "base"

HI Juanito,
Never ever heard of it. Noted.

APPs >> TCE ... SET :(
I chose the wrong driver!
I just can't fix it! :(
-
Hi xor,
I still can't understand what you are asking for :-\. Do you want to make apps to download your TCZs to a custom directory ?
-

Hi xor,
I think you are asking to change the tce directory. You can use "tce=" bootcode. As you want /mnt/sdc1, use tce=sdc1 (assuming that you have the tce folder in sdc1).

in this picture; In which file is the selected driver and folder director information saved?
I want to fix this manually.

Do this. The directory information is not saved into some config file. It just takes the /etc/sysconfig/tcedir symlink as the apps directory.
Also, I suggest renaming your cde dir to tce.in this picture; In which file is the selected driver and folder director information saved?

I get it now
but this application
as a user interface
without entering the command prompt
one click correction and redirection need to be re-set.
in this respect, this application contains a logical error.

Hi xor,
The selection is not actually controlled by Apps. It is the command-line tce-setdrive utility which gives options.
If you want it on boot time, add the command to bootlocal.sh ;) .
-
at the point where the visual interface is used
The visual correction option should be [Re-SET].

tce-setdrive
TCE (/tce/) Directory
The /tce/ (Tiny Core extension) directory is utilized to create and store SCE extensions. This is why the tce-setdrive command is used during installation to set up a persistent system. This allows extensions and related data to be stored for re-use, rather than having to re-install them with every fresh boot (ie. typical 'live' boot). The /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/ (/tce/) directory is actually a symbolic link. Exploring dCore's directory structure after installation will reveal that /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/ may be the same as /mnt/sda1/tce/ or whatever partition is used for the installation.
