Last check: 02. May 2004 Feel free to add/delete new/obsolete items as needed. 1. Yet to write: ================ en/module/ Describe each installer module (this is why the book is written) Ability to install from PLIP? en/tech-info/ Information on how to customize your own boot floppy, what needs to be compiled into the kernel. Some info can be reused from the old manual and from the debian-installer/doc/docbook/kernel-policy.xml file. rescue-replace-kernel Document how to make a replacement kernel for special needs. 2. Update and proofread: ======================== There are still various small left-overs all over the manual (like mentioning various kernel flavors based on 2.2 kernels [hardware/*, install-methods/downloading-files.xml, boot-installer/i386.xml]. We have to rename image names according to the new archive order. Above is true especially for non-i386 architectures, volunteers needed! en/partitioning/ General facts should stay there, but *concrete* steps from installation should be moved into en/module/part*.xml. en/partitioning/device-names.xml: Install system uses devfs, so device names are different en/boot-installer/i386.xml Tell more how to boot for TFTP for the various systems. Mostly a pointer to further documentation of the system, but now the user knows where to look for. 2.1. Broken things en/welcome/doc-organization.xml The &url-install-manual; link is broken and results in a bad sentence. Missing documentation on building d-i from source. There is a commented out sentence that linked to an old boot-floppy-techinfo document. 3. Create reasonable build system ================================= Currently there is just whacky wow-i-can-get-html-out-of-it build system in ./build directory. 3.1 build related items ----------------------- Move doc/manual/validate.sh to the doc/manual/build directory. Move doc/manual/doc-check to the doc/manual/build directory. Aviod other scripts in the top doc/manual directory.
