[Voyage-linux] Voyage linux on USB flash drive

[George]

Hi,

Have tried the installation on USB stick following the info in
http://linux.voyage.hk/content/getting-started-live-cd-v08x

And no luck at all.

I'm just wondering if anybody has been able to install Voyage on a USB 
and boot a laptop or PC with it :(

Any help is more than welcome.
Jorge
