[Voyage-linux] Install problem: "current/dev/sdb/ does not exist"

[Antti Turunen]

Hello,

I am installing Voyage current (14 Nov 09) to a CF disk (for ALIX), like 
I have done many times before.

In the last step the voyage.update says:
"sfdisk: bad input
mount: special device /dev/sdb1 does not exist
Fatal Error: Failed to mount /dev/sdb1 on /mnt/cf as an ext2 partition"

Could somebody tell what the problem might be? I believe I am doing the 
job exactly similarly to the earlier, successful times. I also have 
checked and re-created the CF with fdisk and it looks OK:

"Disk /dev/sdb: 1039 MB, 1039933440 bytes
32 heads, 62 sectors/track, 1023 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 1984 * 512 = 1015808 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x00056a22

    Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sdb1               1        1023     1014785   83  Linux"


This is my installation config:

"Configuration details:

Distribution directory:   /home/anttu/voyage-current

Thanks in advance for help,

Anttu
