Added "Copyright 2010-2011 Linux Foundation" under the title. For
now this will have to do. Once we get the converted website up I
would like to see all manuals displayed as HTML files within the
context of the site layout. At that point we can have a copyright
and trademark stuff in a persistent footer.
[BUGID #696]
Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
As part of the fix for #628 I added a new question to the FAQ for use
of Poky when you do not have Python 2.6.
Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
Part of the fix for Bug 628 is to add a note that bitbake requires
python 2.6. I added this note before the example bitbake command
that builds an image. I also added a linked reference to the Poky
Reference Manual and mentioned the FAQ appendix. There will be more
information about the python requirement in the FAQ.

I made some updates to the 3.4.4 section according to Bruce Ashfield's
feedback. I also added a new section 3.4.5 (Creating a BSP Based on an
Existing Similar BSP Without a Local Kernel Repository).

Added text after the sample bbappend file stating that the user needs
to update the KSRC assignment statement and also remove its comment.
Also they have to remove the comment from the SRC_URI line.
Changed the bitbake command in step 4 to use the linux-yocto-stable
file rather than the linux-yocto file.

Changed 'linux-yocto_git.bbappend' to 'linux-yocto-stable_git.bbappend'
in step 3 just before the code example. This makes the code consistent
with the rest of the example supporting the 2.6.34 kernel.
Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
Step one states that the linux-yocto_git.bbappend file is left. This
file is associated with distro 2.6.37 kernel and the rest of the
example is associated with the 2.6.34 kernel. So, I changed the
step to indicate that the directory is left with a linux-yocto-stable_git.bbappend
file.

These changes implemented Bruce Ashfield's next round of changes to the
section 4.3.3 example.
Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
In section 4.3.3 step 2 there was a directory 'build/donf/bblayers.conf'.
I fixed the typo to 'build/conf/bblayers.conf'.

The example used to show how to condense and merge two BSPs into a second
SCM used a non-existant machine (cav_ebt5800-standard). I replaced this
machine with 'common_pc_64-standard, which is a real machine.

[BUGID# 597] - After talking with Bruce Ashfield the kernel documentation
needs to support the 2.6.34 disribution. So, the 'common-pc-standard'
strings need to be changed back to 'common_pc-standard'. This fix restores
them.

[BUGID# 631] - I added a tip in the section where we show a sample build.
The tip says that you can add 'INHERIT += "rm_work"' to the local.conf file
to help conserve disk space during a build.

Discovered that the manual was not making correctly due to a stray
</literallayout> statement. I removed this statement and the manual
now builds.

Depending on the architecture you are booting and the profile of the
filesystem image QEMU might come up in a new shell, and existing shell,
have a GUI, or be in command-line mode. I added a note indicating this
behavior.

The value for the 64-bit architecture was "x86-64" and not "x86_64".
Changed it to be correct.

The section that introduces the using a pre-built binary section needed
more items in the list. I added text for setting up the environment
and for starting QEMU.

The pre-built image section was one long section that naturally
broke into several areas. I inserted some sub-sections for better
organization.

I added the exact architecture strings for each of the five supported
architectures as part of the /opt/poky/environment-setup.... commands
resulting from installing the toolchain tarballs.

Revised the manual for better grammar and more technically accurate wordings.
Worked closely with Scott Garman on the revision.

Added the packages autoconf and automake to both the Debeian-based
host and the RPM-based host example commands. During a fresh
development host system test run I found these packages were
necessary to develop Yocto projects using Eclipse IDE.

Made several small changes:
- Added a period to three-bullet list for consistency
- grammar fix to sentence
- Added clarification for getting stuff from qemu URL
- Fixed the forms for the image and the file system image

There are some sections now that don't correspond one-to-one with the
standard file structure presented in section 1.1. So I am commenting them
out for now. Since I am still in the process of iterating on this
manual I don't want to just delete the information.

Section 1.1 has the example filesystem layout. The last line of the
example filesystem layout had linux-wrs. It has been changed to
linux-yocto-stable.

I added a reference to the specific section in the kernel documentation
that describes how to create a BSP Based on an existing similar
BSP. The tools we have that create the PDF manuals from the DocBook
XML do not support cross-referencing to another PDF manual. So, I was
left with adding a clunky text-based reference to the section and a link
to the docs page on the web-site.

Added wording to indicate this directory as optional if the BSP had
special requirements for graphics support.

Found a mis-spelling that I corrected.
Also added wording to indicate this directory is optional.
Put in a note telling that defaults are set if a formfactor is
not found.

Added wording to be sure user knows to replace "bsp" and "_bsp" in the
boilerplate template example with the actual BSP name (i.e. <bsp_name>).

It makes more sense to have the sections that describe the various
parts of the common structure as sub-sections to that. That pulls
out the click-through licensing into a higher-level section.
This is better overall section organization.
