Thanks, but...

when I posted my messages I received error messages about the list and 
your account not being available. There also seemed to be hardly any 
work being done on Voyage Linux.

Also, I need 64-bit.

So I started with building kernel 4.9.18, which was current for Jessie 
at the time. I replaced your kernel package with this and that worked 
well. I did not use the quirks.

Then I did what I had been wanting to do for a long time, but never did 
since I could not justify the time, and that is investigate the Debian 
live build system.

The result is that I now have my own live build that produces a complete 
system exactly as I need it. Before that I started with Voyage and then 
removed what I did not need and added what I did.

In the process I also cleaned up the initramfs-tools, because that kept 
complaining that fsck.ext2 was not available. I did this by adding a 
file to config/includes.chroot/usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks with the 
contents below. It makes sure fsck.ext2 is included in the initramfs 
everytime it is rebuilt.
By doing so, the system can now do a fsck on the rootfs before it is 
mounted.

I also improved some other parts that had some minor defects, such as 
"voyage-util stop" giving an error on the directories that had write 
access, by where not included when syncing.
