What kind of module? Do you mean a kernel modul, an extension similar to those in the repository with xxx.tcz file name or something else?

Anyhow, the sarcastic answer is: "For sure. Use Tiny Core Linux installed on Virtual Box running on WINDOWS"

:)

a tcz module was my original intention.
other methods of remastering a CD and adding files is also suitable (something like the rootcopy folder in slax).

TC has many unique charasteristics and features. Before creating extrensions or remastering spend some time just using it from USB, try to install on HD, etc. to be familiar with the system.

Next read articles in the WIKI http://wiki.tinycorelinux.com/tiki-index.php

There are good articles on creating articles, remastering, etc.

No, you really shouldn't create a tcz from Windows. Permissions will be messed up, things will break.
