[Voyage-linux] wiki voyage_kernel and Voyage from scratch

[n schembr]

I love using voyage.  I have been running voyage on small systems for the last year, 240 days uptime.  I now have an application that need more hardware.  I'm running a stack debian system and most of the hardware is supported.  

I'm just starting to do my reading and need your feedback on the best ways build a voyage based system from scratch. 

Is the "voyage kernel" build still current?

Can anyone fill in the voyage for scratch wiki page?

Can I boot a stock debian kernel?  Etch or Sid?

Are there any issues with using a vanilla source  kernel from kernel.org?  what is the best way?

What should I use as the build env? 

I need to have sata, ztdummy, SMP, UML... etc.  Is there a good way to do this? make Xconfig?


Thank you for your time and help,
