cat /proc/partitions yields no results
I added the boot paramaters suggested in section 6.4 and got the same
result.
Dmesg gives a bunch of information, and when it stopped the information i
could see appeared to be related to the usb and ethernet controllers.
lspci -v gives /bin/sh: lspci: not found

My boss did give an image he has of voyage he was using as a router which
did boot up. The grub of the image says voyage 2.6.20-486 and the date
reads voyage-linux-12Jan08

however this image is 1gb and i have a 2 gb drive. Is there any way to
extend the image to encompass the whole CF instead of splitting it into 1
partition of 1gb and 1gb of free space?

thanks
