can i answer you in a private message ?, it is more convenient for me
It was more of a rhetorical question. You do not need a 2nd account. If you're doing so for privacy reasons, you're doing it wrong.
As a "boot code", this is distinct from a "linux command" in that it is used to pass a config value to the linux kernel at boot time so, for instance, typing "tce=sdb1" at a shell prompt after Tiny Core has booted up will have little effect. At start up the linux kernel ignores boot codes that it doesn't recognize (including this one) but does conveniently store store its entire command line in /proc/cmdline where the /etc/init.d/tc-config script can access it.
The exact placement of the boot code varies depending upon the boot loader you are using. In grub2 (a la grub2-multi.tcz), you would place it on the "linux" line, after the path to the kernel:
Code:
linux /boot/tinycore/vmlinuz64 tce=sdb1The above line indicates that a directory named tce exists (if not, it will be created) in the root of /mnt/sdb1 and Tiny Core will store your data backup there as well as storing downloaded extensions in tce/optional/
It's been long enough since I used other boot loaders that I'm not so sure bout them. I think in syslinux it goes on the "append" line.
On the off chance that your SSD is a removable one (connected by USB, for instance) it might not always be at sdb1. If that's the case, say so and we can work with that, too.
