[Voyage-linux] 0.8.0_amd64 gives "XZ-compressed data is corrupt"

[Zenny]

I tried again with the 0.8.0 SDK live cd in VirutalBox. But the
problem is there is no 'extlinux' command as stated in the second part
of the tutorial
(http://linux.voyage.hk/content/getting-started-live-cd-v08x). :-(

The information is so scattered that it is confusing.

I shall be obliged if there is a way to customize the voyage linux and
get installed in Flash Disk in an easy way. I would like to add:

1) a repository to add some additional module and install and activate
the module
2) Then any possibility create an image so that I can directly dd to a
Flash disk without going through the all 8 steps.
3) How to create a amd64 image with 0.8.0 sdk live cd?

Thanks!
