Hi all,
Just a few documentation errors that should be cleaned up to help new
users (like myself). Nothing major, as even I could figure it out :-P ,
but might help minimize the confusion...
Two little errors in this.
1. On the page below, the instructions for unpacking tar's using bzip
seems wrong; on my Gentoo Linux system, the command given seems to be wrong:
tar xIf ../archive/TOOLNAME.tar.bz2 # for bzip'ed tools
Should be:
tar xjf ../archive/TOOLNAME.tar.bz2 # for bzip'ed tools
My tar doesn't understand the "I".
Bad Page:
http://www.rtems.com/onlinedocs/releases/rtemsdocs-4.6.5/share/rtems/html/started/started00035.html
2. On the page below, these instructions are wrong:
cd tools/gdb-5.2
cat archive/gdb-5.2-rtems-20030211.diff | \
patch -p1
Should be:
cd tools/gdb-5.2
cat ../../archive/gdb-5.2-rtems-20030211.diff | \
patch -p1
Bad Page:
http://www.rtems.com/onlinedocs/releases/rtemsdocs-4.6.5/share/rtems/html/started/started00045.html
While I'm at it, the www.rtems.com/onlinedocs.html page should be
updated to include the current release (4.6.5)! And, under the
Snapshots section, the Current RTEMS Snapshot link sends you to
ss-20030411 - obviously out-of-date!
