[Voyage-linux] upgrading to larger cf card

[Mike O'Connor]

Hi Drew

Use rsync to move the data to another machine and then parition and format
the new cf module. Then rsync back again.
Make sure you use 'rsync -aPx --numeric-ids / someserver:/storage_location

The -P, -x, and --numeric-ids are very important as these will make sure
the data is copied correctly
Cheers
Mike
