Title: Installing Tinycore to a hard drive
Post by: MaxFury on January 17, 2026, 12:30:35 PM

I have run the installer, but it doesn't appear to have install a boot loader yet.
How do I proceed? please see image.

Hi MaxFury
extlinux is the boot loader.
You should be able to boot from the hard drive now.

When I go into my BIOS screen, it shows it doesn't see a bootable thing.
Also the Wifi setup is faulty, it takes many reboots to get connected.

It's so weird, the same thing that boot through the USB is now in the mmc right?
I wonder if I could have something different with the tc-install app.
