Punky,
I'm testing my wiki page
how_do_i_install_voyage-current_on_a_usb_flash_drive_with_extlinux and when I
run the ./usr/local/sbin/voyage.update script the first time boot hangs with
Init: no more process left in this runlevel
If I just copy the voyage-current file system with rsync ( Install voyage on
usb key option 1), the system boots ok.
I do not belive this has anything to do with the use of extlinux. I'm not
sure how to run the voyage.update script with grub. On the staging system the
target is /dev/sdb. This will become /dev/sda when it boots.
I'm going to give voyage.update a try. I'm booting USB only, and I'm unable
to use /dev/hda for testing.

PS. Danny W. Adair, Thank you for writing the wiki page. It put me on the trail
to booting from usb drives.
