Tiny Core Linux > VirtualBox
VirtualBoxIf you are a Windows user, have you ever wondered how difficult it is to work with or experiment with tinycore?
This is bacause many people would find it inconvenient to boot intotinycore every time they need to make a small change, cook up apackage, or simply experiment.
I have a great suggestion that would ease your pains. You can actuallyboot tinycore within a virtual machine like Sun VirtualBox. This willallow you to boot TinyCore as a "window" within your existing OS, andeven works on Windows!
There are 3 ways of doing this, of which the last one I like best.
The last one is a Hybrid Boot setup, allowing booting TinyCore from adisk partition after the BIOS, and also within Windows itself as aVirtualBox VM instance reading from the same disk partition.
Note: This tutorial emphasizes on Safety. There is very very littlechance of corrupting your hard-drive or existing Operating System. Forexample, VBoxManage commands restricts write to only the new partition.
Windows Host Os
Method 1: VBox Boot from Mounted Tinycore ISO
The tutorial here will be focused on getting you up and running the simplest way.
Method 2: VBox Boot from Tinycore Virtual Disk
The tutorial here will be slightly more complicated as you would needto initialize a .vdi virtual-disk file, then perform installation ofTinycore on the virtual disk.
Method 3: VBox Boot from Tinycore Virtual Physical Parition
The tutorial here will be slightly more tedious, but not morecomplicated, exploiting a lesser known feature that allows VBox to bootfrom a physical partition residing on your disk.
This produces a Hybrid Boot setup where you can boot Tinycore withinWindows and also normally from BIOS (to gain the best performance).Paragon Ext2Browser (read & write) is used to allow you to copyfiles in and out of Tinycore (from within Windows).
