Title: TC on MacBook Air 2015
Post by: Demontager on June 29, 2022, 03:15:54 AM

Trying to get working USB drive containing TinyCorePure64-13.1.iso. Tried BelenaEtcher and dd way no success - when i press Option key no TC drive available.

Code: [Select]

dd if=TinyCorePure64-13.1.iso of=/dev/sda

Then i found this thread http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php/topic,23414.15.html and followed steps described by Twist
and stuck on step 6 e.g.
6) download STUBLOAD_release_x64.EFI and Kernelcmd_sample.txt from https://github.com/KNNSpeed/UEFI-Stub-Loader

However UEFI-Stub-Loader no more available.

I found easy way to load TC on MacBook - YUMI https://www.pendrivelinux.com/yumi-multiboot-usb-creator/
I used UEFI variant YUMI UEFI. Also tried Ventoy not working it shows iso images list but not boot.
