[Voyage-linux] More build errors...

[Punky Tse]

The kernel source is always available, and they are provided in debian
package.  That means, make sure in your Debian building machine, you
have
    deb http://www.voyage.hk/dists/sarge ./ 
in /etc/apt/sources.list and has run "apt-get update".  Then,
    apt-get install kernel-source-2.6.8-voyage
The kernel tarball will be downloaded to /usr/src.  Use your
conventional way to build the kernel.

If you are not running Debian, but other distro, you can download the
deb package at:
    http://www.voyage.hk/dists/sarge/kernel/

The kernel config is stored in 
    http://www.voyage.hk/download/kernel_config/
