[Voyage-linux] log the stdout of a process started by start-stop-daemon

[Teco Boot]

I did have same kind of issue. I started using bash instead of sh.
(1st line: #!/bin/bash)
Maybe it is a dirty bypass and I should use a clean sh script.

I’m suspecting it could be a matter of mounting the file system after starting my script, but I’ve checked the execution number and its the last one it shares the number with some other processes). Anyone can guess what’s wrong with the code?
