[Voyage-linux] debootstrap.voyage.sh on etch

[Kim-man 'Punky' TSE]

Hi Nicholas,

You don't need to build voyage-current. Instead, use the customization 
framework to customized the voyage distro.

The documentation on how to build the new voyage will be provided later 
when the voyage-0.3pre1 is released.

You can use the voyage-current.iso to run it inside VMWare, then install 
to the virtual disk.  I don't know about qemu, but I think it will work 
the same.

Regards,
Punky
