'bitbake -g <target>' command. I added this in and provided a

This term should always reference a users current working directory
and not be confused with the OpenEmbedded build system's "work
directory (WORKDIR). I found several instances where the term
"working directory" was not used correctly and fixed them.

poky replaces ~/poky (except in some very specific examples)

The formatting for the "Caution" boxes was poor. There was no
apparent reason in the style guide why these types of admonitions
should appear any different than "Notes" or "Tips", which look
fine. I could not devise a .css solution so I tricked the
formatting by using the <title></title> tags in combination with
a <note></note> pair. Basically dumped the <caution></caution>
tag pair. It looks okay now.

Changes partially address this issue, which is the removal of
tarball installations for poky. The notes at the beginning of
the YP manuals suggested that the tarball version of a manual
might lag the version found on the website. Because we are
discouraging installing poky/documentation from a tarball now,
I have re-written the note to be generic and suggest simply that
for the most recent version of the manual associated with the
release, see the manual on the website.
