Is there a kernel command line option that can be used to load an extension ?
-
If you are talking about a Terminal command line. Then all you need is tce-load :D
tce-load -w -i appbrowser-cli.tcz
If not then unfortunately the only alternative is creating separate folders with the different extensions in each. :P For example this is what my menu.lst looks like. ;D
title tc minefield+compiletc
kernel /boot/bzImage tce=hda5/tc/mine restore=hda5/tc/mine quiet
initrd /boot/tinycore.gz
If there is another way to load extensions I'd love to know also. ??? ;D
-
If you are talking about command line app browsing then use the ab command.
It is a simple script built using other *nix commands.
-
@limeblack: you can keep them all in a single tce dir, and just use different lists for what to load on boot.
Default entry without anything, compiletc entry for example with "lst=compile.lst" (with compile.lst being just a renamed onboot.lst for this use).
-
Looking at tce-setup, I thought this might be the case, but I was having some problems.
Your tip about being the same the onboot.lst should help!
Thanks.

I use OnDemand for my compiletc and other less often used extensions. That way they are easily available anytime I need them and not loading at boot or needing a reboot to access them.

Robert,
That's what I do on my desktop, but I'm looking to do this using PXE, and wanted to use the list to handle slightly different extensions for different platforms.
-
The lst=private.lst works, but the AppsAudit application OnBoot maintenance still uses onboot.lst.
Perhaps lst could be saved and AppsAudit could use the list?
