 +====== dCore Base Installation ======
  
 +How to install and maintain the dCore base system including examples, walk throughs, kernel and initrd updates, localisation (language and keyboard layouts) and notes from previous hardware installs. As only a dCorePlus ISO installation includes an X Window System and Window Manager, the [[dcore:desktop-quicky|dCore Desktop Quicky]] guide is linked below to easily upgrade to a graphic environment. See the [[http://wiki.tinycorelinux.net/dcore:faq#what_should_i_download|What should i download?]] section for more information. All information below based on x86 architecture unless otherwise specified.

 +===== dCore Installation Guides =====
 +=== dCore Test Drive on a USB Stick (Beginners 101) ===
 +A dCore Test Drive on a USB Stick from a pre-existing Linux friendly boot loader (Grub2 example, some Syslinux information). A very thorough introduction to many dCore principles, covers importing extensions, setting up a persistence system, getting graphics running and much more:

 +
 +=== dCore Install From ISO to Hard Drive Without Existing Boot Loader ===
 +A manual persistent dCore base installation from ISO to hard drive without a pre-existing boot loader. The walk through uses primarily built-in tools to partition a drive, prepare file systems, copy over dCore files and install GRUB Legacy boot loader. This will install a stand-alone dCore system without the need for an installer or pre-existing Linux system:
