===== dCore Wiki Welcome page =====

** Welcome to dCore**, a minimal live Linux system based on [[wiki:install_core|Micro Core]] (Tiny Core Linux) 
that uses scripts to download selected packages directly from vast Debian or Ubuntu repositories and converts 
them into useable SCEs (self-contained extensions).

Supplementing dCore's small base with SCE extensions allows a user to create a fully customized system. Installing and setting up a persistent system is straightforward. Numerous Window Managers and Desktop Environments are available. The developer is very helpful to get systems running and provides support.

Note the left-side 'Navigation&' links are for Tiny Core wiki topics, this may confuse users seeking dCore information:
