I think the links, XML and content issues are all the same. Some of them are fixed. Some manpage-links are missing because they are not in 5.1, but in current. I will fix that when I have an overview of what is missing. The content is meant to be redundant. Sure all the information can be found elsewhere, most of the article is just about wrapping some text around manpage links. But that was my intention: Provide a central point where you can read once about differences - and not stand in front of a completely new operating system picking up information, digging through manpages about every little subissue yourself. So, it does not describe any technical details about how to really switch (installing NetBSD or migrating services), that's out of the scope of the article. It is meant to provide information about the differences to consider, so the reader of this article should be capable of switching or creating a plan on how to switch after reading it. > > If somebody would be willing to commit it, these two changes should be the > > ones to put it into the website: http://komkon2.de/docs-index.xml.diff > > http://komkon2.de/docs-Makefile.diff > > The diff for htdocs/layout.xml is missing. ok, that can be found on http://komkon2.de/layout.xml.diff. I have fixed some issues, you can look up the updated article at http://komkon2.de/switchinglinux.xml. Do you have any warning messages when converting the article? If yes, please PM me.
