[Voyage-linux] Needing Input

[Ray Mickle]

Punky,
No, I used the provided tar.gz files and ran the voyage.update there. Then I created a tar of the updated drive (plus the programs we use) and untar it to the next system device. I started using the USB drives in the newer Soekris devices with the Trandsend ssd drives they sell; it was the only way I could get voyage to load as I did not have an adapter for the card to run the scripts directly.

Did you use unetbootin to create Live USB drive from Live CD?

Then use voyage.update to install it to the harddrive.
