2011-02-14documentation/kernel-manual/kernel-how-to.xml: More changes to the creating ↵Scott Rifenbark1
BSP section. These changes implemented Bruce Ashfield's next round of changes to the section 4.3.3 example. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
2011-02-14documentation/kernel-manual/kernel-how-to.xml: Fixed typeScott Rifenbark1
In section 4.3.3 step 2 there was a directory 'build/donf/bblayers.conf'. I fixed the typo to 'build/conf/bblayers.conf'. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
2011-02-14documentation/kernel-manual/kernel-how-to.xml: - Condense and merge example ↵Scott Rifenbark1
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>
2011-02-14documentation/kernel-manual/kernel-how-to.xml: [BUGID# 597] Reversing ↵Scott Rifenbark1
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>
2011-02-14documentation/yocto-project-qs/yocto-project-qs.xml: [BUGID# 631] - Added ↵Scott Rifenbark1
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>
2011-02-14documentation/kernel-manual/kernel-how-to.xml: [BUGID# 597] Fixed common_pcScott Rifenbark1
[BUGID# 597] - Changed the string "common_pc" to "common-pc". Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
2011-02-01documentation/poky-ref-manual/extendpoky.xml: Fixed make problemScott Rifenbark1
Discovered that the manual was not making correctly due to a stray </literallayout> statement. I removed this statement and the manual now builds. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott@scott-desktop.(none)>
2011-01-25documentation/yocto-project-qs/yocto-project-qs.xml: Added note to ↵Scott Rifenbark1
poky-qemu command Depending on the architecture you are booting and the profile of the filesystem image QEMU might come up in a new shell, and existing shell, have a GUI, or be in command-line mode. I added a note indicating this behavior. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
2011-01-25documentation/yocto-project-qs/yocto-project-qs.xml: Updated <arch> value ↵Scott Rifenbark1
for environment setup command The value for the 64-bit architecture was "x86-64" and not "x86_64". Changed it to be correct. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
2011-01-25documentation/yocto-project-qs/yocto-project-qs.xml: Updated list ↵Scott Rifenbark1
introducing pre-built section The section that introduces the using a pre-built binary section needed more items in the list. I added text for setting up the environment and for starting QEMU. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
2011-01-25documentation/yocto-project-qs/yocto-project-qs.xml: Added sub-sections to ↵Scott Rifenbark1
pre-built image section The pre-built image section was one long section that naturally broke into several areas. I inserted some sub-sections for better organization. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
2011-01-25documentation/yocto-project-qs/yocto-project-qs.xml: Corrected environment ↵Scott Rifenbark1
setup command I added the exact architecture strings for each of the five supported architectures as part of the /opt/poky/environment-setup.... commands resulting from installing the toolchain tarballs. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>

2011-01-18documentation/yocto-project-qs: Updated the Packages section.Scott Rifenbark1
Added the packages autoconf and automake to both the Debeian-based host and the RPM-based host example commands. During a fresh development host system test run I found these packages were necessary to develop Yocto projects using Eclipse IDE. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
2011-01-06documentation/yocto-project-qs/yocto-project-qs.xml: Corrections to Using ↵Scott Rifenbark1
Pre-Built Binaries and QEMU section.

2011-01-06documentation/bsp-guide/bsp.xml: Commented out three sections.Scott Rifenbark1
There are some sections now that don't correspond one-to-one with the standard file structure presented in section 1.1. So I am commenting them out for now. Since I am still in the process of iterating on this manual I don't want to just delete the information. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>

2010-12-21documentation/bsp-guide/bsp.xml: replaced the append file line in the templateScott Rifenbark1
Section 1.1 has the example filesystem layout. The last line of the example filesystem layout had linux-wrs. It has been changed to linux-yocto-stable. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
2010-12-21documentation/bsp-guide/bsp.xml: Updated the Linux Kernel Configuration sectionScott Rifenbark1
These changes are another round of edits from Tom Z. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
2010-12-21documentation/bsp-guide/bsp.xml: Added reference to Kernel documentation.Scott Rifenbark1
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>
2010-12-21documentation/bsp-guide/bsp.xml: Updated Linux Kernel Configuration section.Scott Rifenbark1

2010-12-21documentation/bsp-guide/bsp.xml: Updated Display Support Files section.Scott Rifenbark1

2010-12-21documentation/bsp-guild/bsp.xml: Updated Miscellaneous Recipe Files sectionScott Rifenbark1
Found a mis-spelling that I corrected. Also added wording to indicate this directory is optional. Put in a note telling that defaults are set if a formfactor is not found. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
2010-12-21documentation/bsp-guide/bsp.xml: Updated Layer Configuration File SectionScott Rifenbark1
Added wording to be sure user knows to replace "bsp" and "_bsp" in the boilerplate template example with the actual BSP name (i.e. <bsp_name>). Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
2010-12-21documentation/bsp-guide/bsp.xml: Changed numbering scheme.Scott Rifenbark1
It makes more sense to have the sections that describe the various parts of the common structure as sub-sections to that. That pulls out the click-through licensing into a higher-level section. This is better overall section organization. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>

2010-12-21documentation/bsp-guide/bsp.xml: Created better BSP example base namesScott Rifenbark1
Lowered the "E" for the "meta-emenlow" BSP. Removed the "oaktrail" one, which is an Intel code name and replaced it with "beagleboard", which is a non-Intel board. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
2010-12-21documentation/bsp-guide/bsp.xml: Added information about /binaryScott Rifenbark1
Added information in the section about Pre-built User Binaries.

2010-12-21documentation/bsp-guide/bsp.xml: Changed meta naming conventionScott Rifenbark1
