* dev-manual: Updates to the "Locate a Base Recipe" section.Scott Rifenbark2015-02-171-8/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | Bob Cochran pointed out that the skeleton recipe shown in the example is not really what is created by newbb.vim. I updated the example to match.

* dev-manual: Updates to the "Using .bbappend Files" section.Scott Rifenbark2015-02-171-7/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This section was a bit confusing on the use of "_prepend" as associated with the FILESEXTRAPATHS statement. Especially in the final note where it indicated you don't need "_prepend" if your append file is not adding any new files. I updated the note to be more specific. Another small change I made was to replace the Crown Bay BSP referenced in the section with the Emenlow BSP, which has a longer life span than CB. Reported-by: Robert P. J.

* documentation: Removed redundant ID tags that were throwing warningsScott Rifenbark2015-02-171-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When you "make" the mega-manual, there were four tags across the various manuals where the same string "id='intro'" occurred. This causes warnings during the make process. I updated the strings to be unique. There are no cross-references to these so no collateral issues were caused.

* dev-manual: Updates to using IMAGE_FEATURES and EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURESScott Rifenbark2015-02-171-2/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The section "Customizing Images Using Custom IMAGE_FEATURES and EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES" needed a bit more clarification on the image features. The text pretty much passed off image features as all mapping into package groups, which is not true. Some, like "debug-tweaks for example, are more like general configurations. I updated the section accordingly. Reported-by: Robert P. J.

| | | | | | | | | | | | I need to get back to how it was working and then fix the table box issue from there. Using the 1.76.1 stylesheets makes the build too long for the manuals and sometimes the XSL sheets do not load.

* dev-manual: Rewrite of the section on customizing images with packagegroupsScott Rifenbark2015-02-171-12/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | This section was pointing to a poor example in meta. I substituted in a better example and rewrote the section to flow better around that example and the final fabricated one.

* dev-manual, mega-manual: Updated kernel-overview-2-generic.png file.Robert P. J. Day2015-02-171-0/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | There was a sample string in this tree that ended in "ro" when it should have been "r0" (as in release 0). Anytime you update a figure, the modified file must go in both the "figures" directory of both the manual (dev-manual in this case) and in the mega-manual. Reported-by: Robert P. J.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes the issue where the lines for the manual revision table are not appearing. For some reason they do not appear when building the docs using Ubuntu 14.10 and the "current" XSL transformation files. So, I backed up to the 1.76.1 version, which is the nearest version where the issue does not surface.
