Hello all,
Right, we have come to the conclusion that some sort of organised
documentation fo RiscBSD is needed. Aspects that need looking at include:
o A new installation guide
o System configuration with rcm
o A variety of HowTos on various subjects (ie. what are the questions that
people most often ask).
The ones that spring to mind are:
User account creation
Setting up X and fvwm
Getting networking going
Setting up Internet info (domain, modem if needed etc.)
The HowTos would probably cover getting rid of these as well as doing
them, in slightly more detail than the rcm configuration guide.
Would people be so kind as to e-mail me with what documentation
they would be willing to write (*don't* start anything just yet!!!) and
any more detailed ideas for HowTos. I can the collate and compile
everything into a nice "user guide" than can possibly be distributed with
formal CD ROM releases later on etc.
LaTeX or ASCII formats for documentation spring to mind---does
anyone have a problem with this?
Yours Aye,
Neil
