Mentioned at the very end of the beagleboard build that the image
can now be run on the target hardware.
Also, specically noted the local.conf file as "conf/local.conf" in
the build directory.

I did a scrub for the term "Yocto" and substituted appropriately.
This resulted in the term "Yocto Project build system" going away and
being replaced by "OpenEmbedded build system." The "Yocto Project
build directory" was replaced by "build directory." I also found a few
little things that were wrong like including the Debian distro in the
list of supported distros so I removed that. Finally, a spell check
produced a couple of fixes.

The example showing how to use pre-built images, the toolchain, and
filesystem was off a bit. I changed some wording to indicate using the
.ext3 filetype of the filesystem. Previously it talked about expanding
the tarball version but the example has been changed to use .ext3.
Also, the environment setup file has been mis-named forever. It should
have i586 in it and not i686. And, finally, the image name does not
have a release number as part of the name.

Richard made a concerted effort to enable Dash usage in Poky and the sanity
check to detect it is no longer present. We should update the documentation to
reflect this development.
Specifically the section in the quickstart:
"If your distribution is Ubuntu, you need to be running the bash shell. You can
be sure you are running this shell by entering the following command and
selecting "No" at the prompt:
$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure dash
"
Is no longer required.
I have removed it.

A missing dependency surfaced during a build by community member Marc

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.

Split the instructions for getting the packages needed for Yocto
into sections that specifically support Ubuntu, Fedora, and openSUSE.
Also, added a couple packages to openSUSE. I did not implement a
suggested change to include a note indicating future support of
the dash shell since it probably is not good policy to document plans
as they change.

As Reported By: Robert P. J. Day.
Community member Robert P. J. Day scrubbed the Quick Start manual for Release
1.1. He found several areas that were incorrect. Many items were documented
pre-release and changed during the actual realeas. Naming conventions for
images and such had to be changed. Robert also found and suggested several
wording changes that resulted in clearer text.
I was not able to patch all the changes using the 'patch' command. I need to
work out some process issues still in order to apply patches directly to the
yocto-docs repository. Meanwhile, I hand-inserted the changes. Also, some
text changes were modified slightly by me to conform to the books style, etc.
Kudos to Robert for such a detailed look at the YP Quick Start.

This bug was filed by Gary Thomas and was requesting more information
on the "hows" and "whys" of setting up your own package repositories.
At this point, I have added information to help the user understand
build performance issues when choosing between the RPM and IPKG packaging
systems. Likely, there is more that needs to be added to fully address
this bug.
For now, I added explanations in the packaging class and glossary areas
of the YP reference manual, a new paragraph in the YP QS just prior to
firing off a build, and a new bit of information in the configuring
PMS in the ADT Manual.

Day fixes
Three issues pointed out by Robert P. J. Day.
1) Missing text for "This optional GNOME mobile-based UI, which is intended for
devices with resolution but restricted size screens ..." I re-wrote this
so it makes sense.
2) Scrubbed document for incorrect usage of openSUSE. There were three
occurences.
3) Made several changes to the example of using a pre-built image. The
arguments to the poky-qemu command did not exist (they were old). I
used existing arguments now and I also bolstered up the root filesystem
explanation a bit.
