I couldn't boot from a USB device.  I tried a USB DVD drive first.  It
will see it under Voyage Linux, but won't boot from it.   I could get
the install to thumb drive instructions to work, but w/o making more
changes it's not persistent.  Changes go away as soon as you reboot, but
it gave me a linux install which worked on the Alix box.  I did the
thumbdrive install on a card & installed it in the Alix box, which would
then boot on it.  I booted from it, and followed the instructions on
installing Voyage linux to the USB CF reader.  The install worked, and
when I switched the card from the reader to the CF slot in the Alix box
I had the correct install of Voyage Linux running.  I saved the previous
card so my next install will be easier.
