* documentation/poky-ref-manual: New chapter introducedScott Rifenbark2011-12-161-219/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Long-term strategy for the YP Reference Manual is that it contains reference material and not "how-to-information". A step in this direction is to isolate any discussions on components and other areas of YP that need talked about. So to start with, I have created a new chapter for now named "Technical Details" that so far has a discussion of some components and shared state. This is a step in the direction of making this manual a reference manual and not a "how to" manual. Changes included removing redundant material from the 'usingpoky.xml' chapter and also adding the new chapter 'technical-details' into the 'poky-ref-manual.xml' file used for the make.

* documentation/poky-ref-manual/usingpoky.xml: partial for YOCTO #1500Scott Rifenbark2011-12-161-47/+233
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | First draft of a re-write to the "Running a Build" section to try and satisfy YOCTO #1500. I segmented the section into three areas rather than a single area. This allowed me to create a sub-section for the sstate stuff where it could be addressed on its own. I sent the draft out to Richard and Mark H. and got feedback from RP that is going to cause further changes. Thus, I am committing this partial change.

* documentation: Changed all manual links to point to "latest"Scott Rifenbark2011-11-251-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | 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: scrubbed out 'glibc' and replaced with 'eglibc'Scott Rifenbark2011-10-041-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Several manuals and areas were still referring to 'glibc' as the GNU version of the Unix statndrd C library. We do not support this any longer and now use 'eglibc' to build with. Notable changes were in the required packages area of the QS manual. I also added a bit in the reference guide saying how this release does not use 'glibc' to build with but rather 'eglibc'.
