			The Fast Light Window Manager (FLWM) window manager comes in two flavors: The default where the title bars are stacked on the left side of the window, and the 'topside' where the title bars are placed at the top as they are more traditionally placed.

			By default, Tiny Core Linux uses the version with the title bars placed vertically. If you want to change this, load the flwm_topside.tcz package with tce. If you are using a NFS or HTTP file list, simply download the flwm_topside package and replace the flwm entry with flwm_topside in the file list.{{Navbox Linux}}[[Category:Linux]]

	Where {{code\|/tftpboot/images/tinycore}} contains:		Where {{code\|/tftpboot/images/tinycore}} contains a directory containing a <code>onboot.lst</code> file plus all the packages that are needed. In my case, I wanted to PXE boot into Tiny Core Linux with cde, so I copied the 'cde' directory from the Tiny Core Linux iso and dumped it into the NFS export:
	{{highlight\|lang=text\|code=		{{highlight
	$ ls /tftpboot/images/tinycore		\| lang = text
	~~tce~~		\| code = $ ls /tftpboot/images/tinycore
			cde

	$ ls /tftpboot/images/tinycore/~~tce~~		$ ls /tftpboot/images/tinycore/cde
	~~mydata~~.~~tgz~~ onboot.lst optional		copy2fs.lst onboot.lst optional xbase.lst
	}}		}}

	~~You should grab these files from the TinyCore CD or a running installation. Otherwise, ensure that {{code\|onboot.lst}} contains all the packages you wish to have loaded.~~		When TinyCore boots, the NFS share will be mounted as {{code\|/mnt/nfs}} and the packages will be loaded by tce based on the <code>onboot.lst</code> file in the <code>nfs/cde</code> directory.

	When TinyCore boots, the NFS share will be mounted as {{code\|/mnt/nfs}}.
