We will be adding more such tricks shortly just be in touch for more.

The Detailed  description with images to understand it in much better way is Step by Step described & all the necessary tool's FREE Download links are available below.

1. Download unetbootin-windows-309.exe (Windows) or you can download it for the latest Linux, Windows or Mac version.

 

2. Rename your drive and format your USB as FAT32

3. Create a new folder on your desktop

4. Download UltraISO or any other ISO program where you can extract the files

5. Mount your ISO into UltraISO or other

6. Extract the files into your new folder that you created on your desktop

7. Drag all those files within your new folder into the USB drive, now.

8. Open UNetbootin and navigate to the following:

Kernel: ~\boot\vmlinuz

Initrd: ~\boot\core.gz

Options: ~\boot\isolinux\isolinux.cfg

~ means your files on USB

some builds are varied and will be:

Kernel: ~\boot\bzImage

Initrd: ~\boot\tinycore.gz

Options: ~\boot\isolinux\isolinux.cfg

Note: you can change these options manually. E.g. change the screen resolution (vga = 7??) or change the language (e.g. en.utf8).


See Tiny Core FAQs  for other variable options

Here are the codes to change the screen resolution:
 Color            640x480     800x600      1024x768     1280x1024
   256      8 bit     769         771           773             775
 32000   15 bit     784         787           790            793
 65000   16 bit     785         788           791            794
 16.7M   24 bit     786         789           792             795

9. After rebooting, select the USB boot option in the BIOS boot menu.

Reboot now? Yes

Note, this may only work in Windows or Linux system, definitely not Mac OS X. Check out the video below for an alternative method if the one above does not work. Let me know which methods work for you the best :)

If the USB does not load you should add the following  kernel boot parameter waitusb=6 to potentially fix the problem.
