Hi Michael,
1) Unfortunately, there is no way to set the target root device in the
voyage.update. You will need to fix it manually
## Put your CF back to knoppix
mount /dev/<CF device on knoppix> /mnt/cf
vi /mnt/cf/etc/lilo.conf # and change root= line from hda to hdb
chroot /mnt/cf lilo -C /etc/lilo.conf
umount /mnt/cf
2) Pick option 3 (4511/4521) in voyage.update to have PCMCIA support.

I am trying to build a voyage 0.2 boot disk for a Soekris 4801 with a
PCMCIA slot. I am building this on a full x86 PC using a Knoppix
boot. I have a CF card drive in the full PC set to /dev/hda. Two
issues:
ISSUE 1: It no boot. When I make the disk and then move it to the
Soekris 4801 to boot it, I get the following:

The Soekris seems to be seeing this as /dev/hdb, even though in the
Soekris Bios is it set as FLASH=Primary. Is this an issue with how I
am building the voyage disk, or how I am setting up the Soekris Bios?
Soekris BIOS is set as follows (1.28):
comBIOS Monitor. Press ? for help.

ConSpeed = 9600
ConLock = Disabled
ConMute = Disabled
BIOSentry = Enabled
PCIROMS = Enabled
PXEBoot = Enabled
FLASH = Primary
BootDelay = 5
FastBoot = Disabled
BootPartition = Disabled
BootDrive = 80 FF FF FF
ShowPCI = Enabled
Reset = Hard
ISSUE 2: No config choice on voyage.update menu for a 4801 with a
slot card in it.
Explains itself.
Any help is greatly appreciated, as this has been kicking my rear for
a number of days now. I am sure there is a simple fix short of
re-writing all the scripts till I find the combo that works, and I am
just missing it.
Thanks,
- Michael
