2011-07-10dde/guide: Use tabs instead of quote marksantrik
This way we lose the indentation -- but special characters are escaped automatically. Also, the commands appear in monospace font (as <pre> blocks) this way, which I think is better. There might be some prettier option -- but I'm too lazy to check :-) The formatting of the whole thing is not exactly good anyways...
2011-07-09dde/guide: Drop extra note about possibly necessary Makefile changesantrik
Even if it should turn out this is not completely obsolete (which I'm pretty sure it is), the specific cases are already covered in the instructions; and if any new should pop up, the guide needs to be updated accordingly. Making the user guess just doesn't fit with such a step-by-step guide.
2011-07-09dde/guide: Add note about Linux versionantrik
2011-07-09dde/guide: Install all Hurd bits in one "cp" commandantrik
2011-07-09dde/guide: Don't rename driver binary upon installantrik
I don't see any use in that; it only creates potential confusion and other problems.
2011-07-09dde/guide: Drop unnecessary trailing slashantrik
Explicitely using "./" instead of just "." is necessary only in some very special situations... This in not one of them. So use the simpler and more familiar form.
2011-07-09dde/guide: Be more explicit about building as userantrik
Instead of just vaguely stating that things can be done as user, explicitely suggest logging in as user. More importantly, include the chown command necessary for this actually to work...
2011-07-09dde/guide: Don't abuse /home/antrik
Put stuff in an actual user home directory, rather than stuffing it directly in /home/
2011-07-09dde/guide: Be clearer about requirement for creating new driverantrik
Explain that it is only necessary to create a new driver if an appropriate one isn't in DDE already; and mention which steps are necessary only in this case. Also be explicit about the fact that this guide only deals with single-file drivers.
2011-07-09dde/guide: Add many more explanationsantrik
2011-07-09dde/guide: Merge install command for git-core with other packagesantrik
2011-07-09dde/guide: Drop "apt-get update" in Hurdantrik
I'm pretty sure it is neither possible nor necessary with the apt offline setup.
2011-07-09dde/guide: Drop "apt-get upgrade"antrik
This has nothing to do with DDE; and I don't see why it would be necessary here -- the DDE stuff doesn't need any recent packages to build AFAIK.
2011-07-09dde/guide: Better way to download driver fileantrik
2011-07-09dde/guide: Rewrite comments for clarityantrik
2011-07-09dde/guide: Drop section about resolv.confantrik
Again, not the right place for this.
2011-07-09dde/guide: Drop section about installing Hurdantrik
It's really out of place here. Add a note in the intro.
