Hi jmj88,
Tinycore does not offer the "IP networking over USB" out of the box, so you cannot connect it to a Windows computer directly.
Erickalon instructions are correct. But in order to follow them you need to be able to mount the "/mnt/mmcblk0p2" partition of the sdcard, and this is not possible on Windows (there might be some tools to do it but I do not know of any myself).
This leave you two options I guess:
- either use a Linux system to do the job (you can even use a live system, on usbstick, on your current computer, there are many options like the Ubuntu installer https://ubuntu.com/tutorials/try-ubuntu-...ou-install )
- or maybe if you have a spare raspberry pi 2 or 3 you could use it to modify the sdcard, as the pi2/3 has an onboard ethernet and I believe network should work out the box.
We can guide you through the steps, but you first need to choose one of the two options above.
