[Voyage-linux] sshd in voyage 5.2

[Jeff Ramin]

Can somebody suggest a fix for this problem? My plan
was to modify /var/run/sshd before building the image
for the flash drive, but that file doesn't exist at image
creation time. Apparently it is created at boot time.

My current workaround is to modify that file from rc.local
so that sshd can start, but this requires that I access the
machine via the console after the initial boot. I want an
image that I can ssh to immediately, without having to
access the console.

Thanks.
