From 073df1158c7500916ede3c3818374c60993709cd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Scott Rifenbark Date: Tue, 6 Nov 2018 10:31:08 -0800 Subject: ref-manual: Added KERNEL_IMAGE_NAME description The KERNEL_IMAGE_NAME variable is new and is effectively a renamed KERNEL_IMAGE_BASE_NAME variable now. I provided a new glossary description for the new variable. I updated the existing KERNEL_IMAGE_BASE_NAME description to note it has changed. We can't just delete the old variable as there are migration notes for previous releases of YP.
