[Voyage-linux] Soekris net5501 and voyage 0.4.0

[Kim-man 'Punky' TSE]

Hi Hans and all,

I have made several updates to voyage kernel and distro that are now 
available in voyage-current daily build:

- add build date in voyage login banner (/etc/motd)
- add ALIX and 5501 profile in voyage.update
- enable CS5535/36 chipset support (dma mode for ide is now working)
- most importantly, watchdog driver, geodewdt, for ALIX (and should work 
for 5501) is now in place!

voyage-current with above features is with build date = 20070628.  If 
you download it from mirror, please wait for 1 day to be available.

Regards,
Punky
