[Voyage-linux] voyage-0.1 and VIA EPIA?

[Steve W]

The way I solved my problem and found what it showed the boot 
device to be was to boot whatever unit you are trying to install 
on with a Linux distro on the CF that it will boot. Then just do:
cat /proc/partitions

I then found I needed to change /etc/lilo.conf so it pointed to 
/dev/hdc in one case and /dev/hda in another case.
