Just a note for you guys creating your own partitions on sd-cards ...

Although PiCore is relatively nice to sd-cards running mostly from ram, one can still optimize by using 4mb *boundaries*, and not the usual 1mb.

Cards these days are big, so the 3-mb...

The one unfuriating thing for me was that the voltage drop was not enough to make the system unusable - but just enough to be unreliable.

It's not possible to execute VESA bios calls in 64-bit mode. Xorg's vesa driver has an emulator, so it is able to do it nowadays.

Just a thought ---

The 64 bit machines I'm running TCpure64 on don't have any onboard ethernet ports, so I'm using a usb<>ethernet adapter instead.

Maybe that's confusing things after boot ....
