[Voyage-linux] Alix 3d2 rescue system

I'm trying to make a rescue system for Alix 3D2, the original idea is to 
boot from a usb-stick and restore the file system of the compact flash 
burn the image again. Unfortunately TinyBIOS not support booting from 
USB devices, so I'm trying to do it from the grub installed on compact 
flash, I thought it could use the fallback option of grub ever tried 
making usb boot first and then the compact flash the problem is that 
grub does not detect the usb-stick.

I have also tried to copy the kernel and initrd to the compact fash 
keeping the root filesystem on / dev/sda1 and start correctly when the 
usb-stick is plugged in but not plugged when booting the kernel with a 
small shell saying no could not find the file system.

Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions to implement this system?

Thank you very much.
