Hi Jeff,

This is very simple. Here is how I do:

* install the stock Voyage.
* trim it to your needs: remove unwanted packages, add new ones,
  configure network, add users, etc...
* once you're happy with it, take the CF card and plug it into a card
  reader
* make a copy with tar or rsync to a directory (rsync
  -av /mount/cf/ destdir)
* use this directory as the source install of Voyage ( cd
  destdir ; /usr/local/sbin/voyage.update)

you can use the command line options of the installer and use a script
file to automatically format the new CF and install your version of
Voyage.
