* documentation: Changed all manual links to point to "latest"Scott Rifenbark2011-11-251-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are many references to YP documentation throughout the YP manual set. They used to have hard-coded links to the current release (e.g. yoctoproject.org/docs/1.1 for Edison). This created a situation where if you went to a document on the website and clicked on a external reference to another manual, you would redirect to the current manual on the website. Really, you would want to go to the latest manual, which is one that is under development. Changing the links to "yoctoproject.org/docs/latest" makes the tip of master, which is used for devloping the next release, always have references to the manuals being developed and not back to the stable released set of manuals. This "latest" and "current" scheme for the links is not perfect. What has to happen when the latest set of the manuals freezes and becomes the next stable release, all the links in the docs will need to be changed from "latest" in the URL to the new release number. So for example, all the "latest" occurences would need to be changed to "1.2". Then for the next cycle as development begins again, the links need to be infused with "latest" again.

* documentation: Cleaned out bad links and replaced with goodScott Rifenbark2011-10-141-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The re-structuring of the web server that holds the documents created some bad links. I thought I had gotten them all but apparently not. this is a drawback of not being able to test things until after stuff is done. In any case, I grepped through everything and this takes care of it.

* documentation/bsp-guide/bsp.xml: Edits for Crownbay example in kernel recipesScott Rifenbark2011-09-021-25/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Because the Crownbay uses both EMGD and non-EMGD statments in the linux-yocto_3.0.bbappend file I had to do some explaining. It turns out you don't really need to just delete or comment out the non-applicable statements. I also adjusted some wording around the tuning file example. This file I assumed was in the conf directory of the meta-crownbay directory. It is really in the meta/conf/machine/include directory.

* - documentation/bsp-guide/bsp.xml: Re-write of click-throughScott Rifenbark2011-03-031-25/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [BUGID# 553] - In the 'BSP Click-Through Licensing Procedure' section, which is shared between the BSP Guide and the Poky Reference Manual, there were three links to 'pokylinux.org' sites. These links were intended to help a user get a license for encumbered BSPs. However, the links never did work. The section also had some wording that described a propsed naming convention for BSP tarballs that were encumbered and non-encumbered. The naming convention is a good idea but has not been followed so far. I removed the links and replaced them with general instructions on how to get through the licensing situation. Also removed the hard-line naming rules and replaces with a more general explanation of how we are naming BSP (e.g. Crown Bay).
