Title: How to install extensions permamently
Post by: Green_goblin on November 25, 2023, 07:31:57 AM

I permamently installed Tiny Core on a Virtual Machine and everything is correct. After that I installed some extensions locally, that is, with the -i command. I did this because the .tcz files were not available on the Tiny Core repository, so I had to download the .deb files, convert them one by one to .tcz and install them. Problem is, all these manually installed .tcz files are lost at every reboot. How can I install them in such a way that they are permanent?

Thank you and regards.

Put your new extensions in the /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/optional directory with the others, then for each "myextension.tcz":

Code: [Select]

echo myextension.tcz >> /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/onboot.lst

Or open /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/onboot.lst in a text editor and add them with that.

Ok, thanks!
