[Voyage-linux] Experimental booting problems on WRAP board

[Frank Parker]

Punky,
I got this working.  Thank you.  I grabbed the voyage-lenny.iso and
booted it under parallels on a MacBookPro.  Inserted the CF card
reader and successfully ran the voyage-linux installer.  Now
voyage-lenny is booting perfectly on my old WRAP board.
