2 Feel free to add/delete new/obsolete items as needed.
3
4 1. Yet to write:
5 ================
6
7 en/module/
8
9 Describe each installer module (this is why the book is written)
10
11 Ability to install from PLIP?
12
13 en/tech-info/
14
15 Information on how to customize your own boot floppy, what needs to
16 be compiled into the kernel. Some info can be reused from the old
17 manual and from the debian-installer/doc/docbook/kernel-policy.xml
18 file.
19
20 en/install-methods/automatic-install.xml
21
22 Write something more that just plain "We can do FAI".
23
24 rescue-replace-kernel
25
26 Document how to make a replacement kernel for special needs.
27
28
29 2. Update and proofread:
30 ========================
31
32 There are still various small left-overs all over the manual (like
33 mentioning various kernel flavors based on 2.2 kernels [hardware/*,
34 install-methods/downloading-files.xml, boot-installer/i386.xml].
35
36 We have to rename image names according to the new archive order.
37
38 Above is true especially for non-i386 architectures, volunteers needed!
39
40 en/partitioning/
41
42 General facts should stay there, but *concrete* steps from
43 installation should be moved into en/module/part*.xml.
44
45 en/partitioning/device-names.xml:
46
47 Install system uses devfs, so device names are different
48
49 en/boot-installer/i386.xml
50
51 Tell more how to boot for TFTP for the various systems.
52 Mostly a pointer to further documentation of the system,
53 but now the user knows where to look for.
54
55 2.1. Broken things
56
57 en/welcome/doc-organization.xml
58
59 The &url-install-manual; link is broken and results in a bad sentence.
60
61 Missing documentation on building d-i from source. There is a commented
62 out sentence that linked to an old boot-floppy-techinfo document.
63
64 3. Create reasonable build system
65 =================================
66
67 Currently there is just whacky wow-i-can-get-html-out-of-it build
68 system in ./build directory.
69
70 3.1 build related items
71 -----------------------
72
73 Move doc/manual/validate.sh to the doc/manual/build directory.
74
75 Move doc/manual/doc-check to the doc/manual/build directory.
76
77 Aviod other scripts in the top doc/manual directory.
