Title: Tinycore on VMWare Workstation/Fusion with Default SCSI HDD bus
Post by: jseppa01@gmail.com on January 08, 2025, 01:43:46 PM

Hi,

Is it possible to get TinyCore to detect disks using the default SCSI HDD Bus settings for VMWare Workstation/Fusion?

I'm aware I can instruct my users to modify the VM configuration to IDE HDD Bus instead and all is good, but I would prefer to make the install fool proof for those that don't read, lol.

Here are the packages I'm currently loading in my packer build:

Code: [Select]

# load packages
tce-load -wil \
  openssh \
  dmidecode \
  curl \
  mdadm \
  ca-certificates \
  pcre \
  filesystems-6.1.2-tinycore64 \
  mtd-6.1.2-tinycore64 \
  scsi-6.1.2-tinycore64 \
  raid-dm-6.1.2-tinycore64 \
  sg3-utils \
  open-vm-tools \
  xf86-video-intel \
  firmware-i915

I'm guessing I'm missing the SCSI HDD Bus driver or similar to get this to work?

Cheers,

Jason
