Installing TinyCore 8x Linux to the Hard Drive via Command Line

Most of this can be found here: http://distro.ibiblio.org/tinycorelinux/install_manual.html but I made this document for the following reasons: 1) Installation is incorrect (wrong files specified) 2) Installation instructions specific to VMware 3) using fdisk instead of installing and using cfdisk (smaller footprint) 4) Not running as root (Yes, I understand the security implications here are heavily mitigated) On a side note I also found some parts confusing (like the explaining of the hd0 nomenclature in grub) Prerequisites: - VM with IDE disk (NOT SCSI) - 1 CPU - 256 MB of RAM - 100MB of space You can install with SCSI, but the process is labour intensive, for that reason, I find it easier to use an IDE disk (But we can load the SCSI driver later, so we can still use it as a helper for other VM purposes!) 1) Download the ISO from the following location: http://www.tinycorelinux.net/8.x/x86/release/Core-current.iso 2) Upload the ISO to the ESXi host 3) ...

Webex Support with Windows 7

So I decided to break down and try out this new fan dangled Windows 7 (Build 7100), I must admit it does *look* nice. As I use WebEx for support purposes, I happily then fired up IE and tried to start a support session. This didn't work. :(  After the fact, I found some blogs that describe how to run IE as administrator (Shift + control), but for some users this didn't fix it.  For me, I tried to fire up WebEx in Opera 10 beta and that led me to a direct download of atscie.msi (For me, this was https:// .webex.com/sc<#####>/supportcenter/site/download.do?siteurl= &Rnd<####>=<####>&type=direct&file= an 8667KB file).  After firing up IE in Windows 7, all was well. A happy side note, after installing Java 6, then realizing that Opera doesn't like the new java installation directory, I copied the msvcr71.dll from /Program Files/Java/jre6/bin to /Windows/System32 it was happy (But still didn't work).  (Thanks to http://my.opera.com/communit...
