I dug up the script you posted and it appears to still treat $TARGET_DISK as a block special device and $TARGET_PART as a partition number. This doesn't apply if you're loopback mounting a regular file (or portions of it) and attempting to treat the loopback as a `block device'.<br><br>--Frank<br><br>--- On <b>Tue, 12/6/11, Jordi Soucheiron <i><jsoucheiron@dexmatech.com></i></b> wrote:<br><blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;">From: Jordi Soucheiron <jsoucheiron@dexmatech.com><br>Subject: Re: [Voyage-linux] Install to regular file<br>To: "Frank Hoeflich" <frankhoeflich@yahoo.com><br>Cc: voyage-linux@voyage.hk<br>Date: Tuesday, December 6, 2011, 4:59 AM<br><br><div id="yiv1195490718">I used to use dd.

Folks:<br>
<br>
I've done well installing my Voyage 0.6.5 and 0.7.5 systems directly to compact flash for my ALIX via voyage.update from the SDK. Is anyone out there installing directly to a dd'able, loopback-mounted regular file for production? I tried whacking a couple of the scripts to make this happen but still haven't gotten a good burn from the file produced. I can burn to CF first and then dd off the result to a regular file (works), but would like to eliminate the burn step for production purposes. Any shared experience will be appreciated.<br>
<br>
