1. Yet to write: |

|
|
================ |
| 6 |
|
|
|
| 7 |
|
|
en/module/ |
| 8 |
|
|
|
| 9 |
|
|
Describe each installer module (this is why the book is written) |
| 10 |
|
|
|
| 11 |
mck-guest |

Ability to install from PLIP? |
| 12 |
|
|
|
| 13 |
mck-guest |
8212 |
What about the LVM stuff (it shows up in d-i menu from time to |
| 14 |
|
|
time)? |
| 15 |
|
|
|
| 16 |
|
|
en/tech-info/ |
| 17 |
|
|
|
| 18 |
|
|
Information on how to customize your own boot floppy, what needs to |
| 19 |
|
|
be compiled into the kernel. Some info can be reused from the old |
| 20 |
|
|
manual and from the debian-installer/doc/docbook/kernel-policy.xml |
| 21 |
|
|
file. |
| 22 |
|
|
|
| 23 |
|
|
en/install-methods/automatic-install.xml |
| 24 |
|
|
|
| 25 |
|
|
Write something more that just plain "We can do FAI". |
| 26 |
|
|
|
| 27 |
|
|
en/appendix/files.xml |
| 28 |
|
|
|
| 29 |
|
|
In part entitled TBD we need to list more files like it was done in |
| 30 |
|
|
the old manual (if they are needed). |
| 31 |
|
|
|
| 32 |
|
|
2. Update and proofread: |
| 33 |
|
|
======================== |
| 34 |
|
|
|
| 35 |
|
|
There are still various small left-overs all over the manual (like |
| 36 |
|
|
mentioning various kernel flavors based on 2.2 kernels [hardware/*, |
| 37 |
mck-guest |
10372 |
install-methods/downloading-files.xml, boot-installer/i386.xml]. |
| 38 |
mck-guest |

|

We have to rename image names according to the new archive order. |
| 40 |
|
|
|
| 41 |
mck-guest |
8212 |
We should also shift from the old cruft (like mentioning floppies at |
| 42 |
|
|
the _first_ place, or describe various techniques relative to MS-DOS). |
| 43 |
|
|
|
| 44 |
|
|
|
| 45 |
|
|
en/hardware/network-cards.xml |
| 46 |
|
|
|
| 47 |
|
|
Comment states that this list of unsupported cards was completed |
| 48 |
|
|
against kernel-image_2.0.36-2. Ain't that a bit old? |
| 49 |
|
|
|
| 50 |
|
|
en/install-methods/floppy/i386.xml |
| 51 |
|
|
|
| 52 |
|
|
Do we still have the possibility to create localized rescue floppy? |
| 53 |
|
|
|
| 54 |
|
|
en/partitioning/ |
| 55 |
|
|
|
| 56 |
|
|
General facts should stay there, but *concrete* steps from |
| 57 |
|
|
installation should be moved into en/module/part*.xml. Also update |
| 58 |
|
|
to d-i way of doing things is needed -- something about partman? |
| 59 |

("Initialize a linux partition", "Initialize swap" and "Mount |
| 60 |
|
|
a Previously-Initialized Partition" are now done in one step...). |
| 61 |

en/partitioning/device-names.xml: |
| 63 |
|
|
|
| 64 |
|
|
Install system uses devfs, so device names are different |
| 65 |
|
|
|
| 66 |
mck-guest |
8212 |
en/boot-new/ |
| 67 |
|
|
|
| 68 |
|
|
Some of this (the bootloader part (up to "The Moment of Truth"?)) |
| 69 |
|
|
should really go into en/module/${arch}/*-installer.xml. |
| 70 |
|
|
(Besides, do we have 'Make a Boot Floppy' step)? |
| 71 |
|
|
|
| 72 |
|
|
en/welcome/doc-organization.xml |
| 73 |
|
|
|
| 74 |
|
|
The partitioning chapter doesn't fit anywhere. Any suggestions? |

Tell more how to boot for TFTP for the various systems. |
| 79 |
|
|
Mostly a pointer to further documentation of the system, |
| 80 |
|
|
but now the user knows where to look for. |

3. Create reasonable build system |
| 84 |
|
|
================================= |
| 85 |
|
|
|
| 86 |
|
|
Currently there is just whacky wow-i-can-get-html-out-of-it build |
| 87 |
|
|
system in ./build directory. |

3.1 build related items |
| 90 |
|
|
----------------------- |
| 91 |
|
|
|
| 92 |
|
|
Move doc/manual/validate.sh to the doc/manual/build directory. |
| 93 |
|
|
|
| 94 |
|
|
Move doc/manual/doc-check to the doc/manual/build directory. |
| 95 |
|
|
|

|
|
Aviod other scripts in the top doc/manual directory. |
| 97 |
