Tiny Core Linux Team
Is there any need to have the Tiny Core Linux Team section in the article. It doesn't add any useful information. DavidMarsh (talk) 23:29, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
More info on licensing please!
"Various" is not good enough. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.76.117.4 (talk) 20:04, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
- Added the license. OreoMadn3ss (talk) 04:36, 15 May 2010 (UTC)
Revision
I'm planning on revising this article. The TCZ system has evolved qutie a bit since this article was written, and there is other useful information about TinyCore that isn't on the page. Also, the "Timeline" seems fairly useless. any objections to removing it? --Libertyernie2 (talk) 17:53, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
Content Removal
The sections "Team Tiny Core" and "Release History" do not add anything to the article, and as such I will delete them in a week if no objections are made. HMman (talk) 01:49, 9 July 2012 (UTC).
- Seeing no objections, I will go ahead. Instead of my original proposal, I'll do some major trimming to the "Release History" as opposed to outright deletion. HMman (talk) 16:25, 10 August 2012 (UTC).
It appears (at least to me) that Fatdog64 has at least some traits of CP64 - notably, Puppy's standard "bulk-file" is stored within the core GZ, the TinyCore way. And the "save wizard" only occurs when shutdown/reboot is initiated out of GUI, else it shuts down without question, and its thorough shutdown/reboot preparation script is reminiscent of Tiny Core's (though it puts more effort into spinning down the physical hard drive/CDROM). So, Fatdog64 appears to be a blend of CorePure64 and Puppy, scrapping TinyCore's TCE tools but retaining the Puppy SFS loader tools. This is obvious even to a non-tech-savvy guy, and is also evidenced by double presence of Control Panel (both in System menu and in menu's root). Another thing potentially pointing at this is the ability to use a sub-folder instead of a save state (though this could be a new feature relying on both Puppy's and Tiny Core's existing features). This is something that may be of note to people comparing Linux distributions (such as tech bloggers).
