[Voyage-linux] Disabling IDE UDMA on WRAP boxes

[Kim-man 'Punky' TSE]

Hi David,

I have via boards that runs asterisk and VoIP stuff on voyage.  I also 
need ide=nodma in grub boot parameters when I used a CF-IDE adaptor on 
that board.

I think this should be documented in FAQ on wiki too.

Regards,
Punky
