* documentation/poky-ref-manual/faq.xml: [BUGID# 628] - Added new question for ↵Scott Rifenbark2011-02-231-0/+41
| | | | | | | | | Python 2.6 requirement. As part of the fix for #628 I added a new question to the FAQ for use of Poky when you do not have Python 2.6. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
* documentation/yocto-project-qs/yocto-project-qs.xml: [BUGID# 628] - Added ↵Scott Rifenbark2011-02-231-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | note about Python 2.6 bitbake requirement Part of the fix for Bug 628 is to add a note that bitbake requires python 2.6. I added this note before the example bitbake command that builds an image. I also added a linked reference to the Poky Reference Manual and mentioned the FAQ appendix. There will be more information about the python requirement in the FAQ. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
* documentation/kernel-manual/kernel-how-to.xml: Changes to section 3.4.4 and ↵Scott Rifenbark2011-02-181-0/+31
| | | | | | | | | | new 3.4.5 I made some updates to the 3.4.4 section according to Bruce Ashfield's feedback. I also added a new section 3.4.5 (Creating a BSP Based on an Existing Similar BSP Without a Local Kernel Repository). Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
* documentation/kernel-manual/kernel-how-to.xml: fix to step 3 and 4 of ↵Scott Rifenbark2011-02-181-1/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | section 3.4.4 Added text after the sample bbappend file stating that the user needs to update the KSRC assignment statement and also remove its comment. Also they have to remove the comment from the SRC_URI line. Changed the bitbake command in step 4 to use the linux-yocto-stable file rather than the linux-yocto file.

* documentation/kernel-manual/kernel-how-to.xml: Fix to step 3 of section 3.4.4Scott Rifenbark2011-02-181-1/+1
| | | | | | | | Changed 'linux-yocto_git.bbappend' to 'linux-yocto-stable_git.bbappend' in step 3 just before the code example. This makes the code consistent with the rest of the example supporting the 2.6.34 kernel. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
* documentation/kernel-manual/kernel-how-to.xml: Fix to step 1 of section 3.4.4Scott Rifenbark2011-02-181-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | Step one states that the linux-yocto_git.bbappend file is left. This file is associated with distro 2.6.37 kernel and the rest of the example is associated with the 2.6.34 kernel. So, I changed the step to indicate that the directory is left with a linux-yocto-stable_git.bbappend file. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>

* documentation/kernel-manual/kernel-how-to.xml: - Condense and merge example ↵Scott Rifenbark2011-02-141-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | changed. The example used to show how to condense and merge two BSPs into a second SCM used a non-existant machine (cav_ebt5800-standard). I replaced this machine with 'common_pc_64-standard, which is a real machine. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
* documentation/kernel-manual/kernel-how-to.xml: [BUGID# 597] Reversing ↵Scott Rifenbark2011-02-141-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | common-pc-standard [BUGID# 597] - After talking with Bruce Ashfield the kernel documentation needs to support the 2.6.34 disribution. So, the 'common-pc-standard' strings need to be changed back to 'common_pc-standard'. This fix restores them. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>

| | | | | | | | | | tip for saving disk space during a build. [BUGID# 631] - I added a tip in the section where we show a sample build. The tip says that you can add 'INHERIT += "rm_work"' to the local.conf file to help conserve disk space during a build. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | I added a reference to the specific section in the kernel documentation that describes how to create a BSP Based on an existing similar BSP. The tools we have that create the PDF manuals from the DocBook XML do not support cross-referencing to another PDF manual. So, I was left with adding a clunky text-based reference to the section and a link to the docs page on the web-site. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
