  Tiny Core Linux is a very small (<12 MB) minimal Linux GUI Desktop. It is based on Linux 3.0 kernel, Busybox, Tiny X, and Fltk.

• デフォルトではSCSIデバイスを扱えない模様

  • VMwareはLinuxゲストにSCSI HDDを用意するので、嵌る

• ​tsubame 2: さくらVPSで tinycorelinux
  • GRUB1の方法なので、GRUB2では使えない

• ​GCC can't find stdio.h inttypes.h errno.h

boot with loopback (GRUB2)

1. mitty@viola-debian:~$ wget ​http://distro.ibiblio.org/tinycorelinux/4.x/x86/release/microcore-current.iso

mounting XFS with LVM

• tc@box:~$ tce-load -wi lvm2

• tc@box:~$ sudo vgscan

    Reading all physical volumes.  This may take a while...
    Found volume group "vgroot" using metadata type lvm2
  

• tc@box:~$ sudo lvscan

    inactive          '/dev/vgroot/lvroot' [19.07 GiB] inherit
    inactive          '/dev/vgroot/lvswap' [120.00 MiB] inherit

    2 logical volume(s) in volume group "vgroot" now active
    The link /dev/vgroot/lvroot should had been created by udev but it was not found. Falling back to direct link creation.
