Sure you have another PC, or where did you try to prepare your CF card?? Get the LiveCD and read the post I linked to - the Voyage LiveCD contains everything needed to let your Alix boot from PXE ...

I followed all the guides and when I start my alix is this output: PC Engines ALIX.2 v0.99h 640 KB Memory Base 261 120 KB Extended Memory 01F0 044A Master CF Card 4GB Phys C / H / S 7745/16/63 Log C / H / S 968/128/63 Missing operating system. No boot device available, press Enter to continue. After this message remains there still. What do you advise me to do? most likely the Bios setting for LBA mode doesnt fit. I faced this problem too when I used an IDE2CF adapter instead of a CF-Card reader. If you cant get it working with another Bios setting I'd suggest you try the installation directly on the Alix via PXE which is easy - see: http://linux.voyage.hk/content/getting-started-pxe-boot-v010x HTH, Günter. ___ Voyage-linux mailing list Voyage-linux@list.voyage.hk http://list.voyage.hk/mailman/listinfo/voyage-linux

AFAIK there are no ARM images; quote from the Voyage main page: "Voyage Linux is Debian derived distribution that is best run on a x86 embedded platforms such as PC Engines ALIX/WRAP, Soekris 45xx/48xx/65xx and Atom-based boards." Also why dont you want to use Raspbian which seems to be similar to Voyage?
