2011-07-21documentation/kernel-manual/kernel-how-to.xml: Tree Construction section ↵Scott Rifenbark
further explained Added text to help put tree construction into context with the developer. The section felt as if the developer needed to be taking action on the steps when in reality the steps are describing a lot of "behind-the-scenes" stuff that happens when the YP tree is constructed.

2011-07-21documentation/kernel-manual/kernel-how-to.xml: Defined audience for chapterScott Rifenbark
Added a sentence clarifying the intended audience of this chapter. It is specifically for developers that want to modify the YP kernel and contribute changes upstream to YP.

2011-06-13documentation: [YOCTO #1025] build system for docsBeth Flanagan
These changes fix the following issues: 1. Multiple Makefiles. There really is no need for this. 2. Unable to maintain more than one version of the docs on the webserver. This is a quick fix to enable the above. In order to build the documentation, at the top level, issue a: make all DOC=<doc directory name> make all DOC=kernel-manual Also, some changes need to occur on the webserver to fully incorporate these fixes. http://www.yoctoproject.org/documentation/ The docs are now published to: http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/<Release MM.mm>/<doc name> The main page should be changed to point not only to the current doc release, but also to the prior releases. This will enable us to maintain prior release documentation without stomping over it when we publish new docs. Also, we'll need to repoint the yocto-quick-start link to yocto-project-qs. Or rename documentation/yocto-project-qs/* to support the website naming.

Modifications to the figure image (figures/kernel-title.png), the heading styles (style.css), and the numbering system with TOC display (yocto-project-kernel-manual-customization.xsl). I updated the title image to display the manual title using color #00557D, which coordinates with the Yocto Project website color scheme. I also updated the style sheet to use this same color for the section headings. This helps to set them off better from the text. Finally, I flipped the switch back on for this manual to create chapter-specific table of contents sections prior to each chapter and to include a all-inclusive TOC at the beginning of the book.

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.
