[Voyage-linux] Installation Issues

[Pascal de Bruijn]

Hi,

I just tried to install Voyage using Ubuntu Dapper, and had some issues.
I made a patch to fix them, the basically does two things:

1. Modern distributions mount CF disk automatically through HAL. The
installation script tries to manually mount the CF disk, and fails
because it may already be mounted. So my patch first tries to unmount
the CF disk, before mounting it again as ext2.

2. On my system lilo wouldn't install because /dev/sda wasn't available.
My patch does a bind mount of /dev to /cfdisk/dev, which makes all
devices of the host system available to the lilo chroot.

Regards,
Pascal de Bruijn
