[Voyage-linux] Voyage live from USB does not see CF card filesystem

[Kim-man 'Punky' TSE]

Hi GeoD,

1. Can you try lilo instead of grub.
2. Can you clarify how you boot voyage?  Voyage Linux installed on CF then plug into a USB card reader that connects to 
your target system?
3. On deb5 or deb6 netinst after CF is detected, can you send me the output of "dmesg" and "lsmod"?  Probably some 
kernel modules are missed in voyage.
