| dCore may well be installed to hard-disk in the same frugal way as on a [[dcore:usb_installation_test-drive|USB-stick]]. Here we consider, though, a full-fledged installation with persistent '/home/' and '/opt/', //Syslog//, multiple TTYs and some more goodies. There are quite some choices made and this exposition will give a basic, functional desktop. All of it can later be adapted to once likings. | dCore may well be installed to hard-disk in the same frugal way as on a [[dcore:usb_installation_test-drive|USB-stick]].

| The persistent directories will reside directly on hard-disk instead of being included into 'mydata.gz'. The advantage over the frugal installation is that there is no need for packing and un-packing those two, possibly quite large directories. | The persistent directories will reside directly on hard-disk instead of being included into 'mydata.gz'.

| Follow the instructions for side-loading the base [[http://wiki.tinycorelinux.net/dcore:wireless_set-up#import_extensions|extensions for wireless connection]] if needed. | The instructions for side-loading the base [[dcore:wireless_set-up#import_extensions|extensions for wireless connection]] can be applied in the following way: |
| | - Make the files available anywhere in the file system. |
| Note that before doing so, you must have started the system once so as to have the basic directory structure set up. Restart the system by issueing ''reboot''. | - Upon first launching (cf. [[#First launch|below]]), copy the files into the tce-directory and proceed as [[dCore:Wireless set-up|instructed]]. |
