[Voyage-linux] Install Trouble w/ voyage-0.2pre1 and FC4

[Kevin Crick]

Verify that there is the file sda1 under /dev on your target disk. If
/dev/sda1 doesn't exist, then go to directory dev under voyage-x.x (the
extracted tarball), and run ./MAKEDEV sda. This should create the device
for your next install attempt.

Hope this helps.
