Creation involved removing the overview-manual and replacing it with the getting-started manual. All links to the string "&YOCTO_DOCS_OVERVIEW_URL" had to be replaced with "&YOCTO_DOCS_GS_URL" across the entire YP manual set. I renamed files used to create the manual with prefixes suited for the new manual name, which is "Getting Started With Yocto Project". The style sheet for the new manual needed updating to display the new .PNG image for the title page. The mega-manual file had to be updated to include the files. The mega-manual.sed file had to be updated to include the new manual and not use the overview manual.

The distribution layer provides policy configurations for your
|
||
distribution.
|
||
Best practices dictate that you isolate these types of
|
||
configurations into their own layer.
|
||
Settings you provide in
|
||
<code class="filename">conf/distro/<em class="replaceable"><code>distro</code></em>.conf</code> override
|
||
similar
|
||
settings that BitBake finds in your
|
||
<code class="filename">conf/local.conf</code> file in the Build
|
||
Directory.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
The following list provides some explanation and references
|
||
for what you typically find in the distribution layer:
|
||
</p>
|
||
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" type="disc">
|
||
<li class="listitem"><p><span class="emphasis"><em>classes:</em></span>
|
||
Class files (<code class="filename">.bbclass</code>) hold
|
||
common functionality that can be shared among
|
||
recipes in the distribution.
|
||
When your recipes inherit a class, they take on the
|
||
settings and functions for that class.
|
||
You can read more about class files in the
|
||
"<a class="link" href="../ref-manual/ref-classes.html" target="_self">Classes</a>"
|
||
section of the Yocto Reference Manual.
|
||
</p></li>
|
||
<li class="listitem"><p><span class="emphasis"><em>conf:</em></span>
|
||
This area holds configuration files for the
|
||
layer (<code class="filename">conf/layer.conf</code>),
|
||
the distribution
|
||
(<code class="filename">conf/distro/<em class="replaceable"><code>distro</code></em>.conf</code>),
|
||
and any distribution-wide include files.
|
||
</p></li>
|
||
<li class="listitem"><p><span class="emphasis"><em>recipes-*:</em></span>
|
||
Recipes and append files that affect common
|
||
functionality across the distribution.
|
||
This area could include recipes and append files
|
||
to add distribution-specific configuration,
|
||
initialization scripts, custom image recipes,
|
||
and so forth.</p></li>
