As suggested by Paul Eggleton and Richard Purdie, the example that
describes another method for creating a cusomt image was modified
so that it is based on an existing recipe instead of requiring a
new image.

I did a quick and dirty scrub over the manuals for the strings
"1.1" and "edison". I found some instances that were not properly
variablized. Also, discovered some references to the
linux-yocto-3.0-1.1.x. All but one instance of this needed changed
to linux-yocto-3.2.

A reference to meta/recipes-sato/tasks/task-poky.bb is made as a good
example of a task; however, this file / recipe doesn't exist. I
replaced it with meta/recipes-core/tasks/task-core-boot.bb, which I
think is a both useful and basic example to consider.

Minor edits to the BSP Guide, the Development Manual, and the
Kernel Manual to address [YOCTO #1717], which noted confusion
over the kernel manual when a user was trying to find kernel
configuration information.
The fix for this bug involved several areas. I had previously
created a new section called "Kernel Configuration" in the kernel
manual and "Configuring the Kernel" in the YP Development manual.
There were several rounds of feedback from Bruce Ashfield.
This commit represents the final touches on the three manuals to
address the bug.

Added a bit more information to the wording where it talks about
creating a Git Repository if you are going to contribute back
into YP. This change was suggested by Robert P. J. Day and
was submitted to me in the form of a patch. For reasons unknown
to me the patch Hunk failed even though I believe I had things
saved and applied correctly. I had to resort to applying it by
hand. I ended up doing a bit of re-writing on the suggested
change to clean it up.
