To answer your question I want to compile limey from source so I can
become familiar with building a custom CF image for these systems.  I
bought several of them and have some projects planned for them where I
would like to add some utility software like mkfs so I can build a file
system on the CF.  I had to boot ubuntu from cd-rom to mkfs the CF because
although fsck was present, mkfs was not available on the CF image I
downloaded.  I do not want to be stuck always asking for help as I realize
that you and the others on the list have more interesting things to spend
time on.  I also want to be able to contribute back to the group any
additions I might make to the software that might be of interest to the
group.  I have checked out the software and I am building the CF image
now.

Thank you for your help,
