Description Belen Barros Pena 2012-04-02 16:05:30 UTC
In the Image types tab:

1. The 'image types' information bubble should say: "Image file system types you want"

In the Output tab:

2. The 'Root file system package format' information bubble should say: "Selects the package format used to generate rootfs"

3. The 'Additional package formats" information bubble should say: "Selects extra package formats to build"

4. The 'Image rootfs size' information bubble should say: "Sets the basic size of your target image. This is the basic size of your target image unless your selected package size exceeds this value or you select 'Image Extra Size'"

5. The 'Image extra size' information bubble should say: "Sets the extra free space of your target image. By default, the system reserves 30% of your image size as free space. If your image contains zypper, it brings in 50MB more space.  The maximum free space is 1024MB"

6. The 'Build toolchain' information bubble should say: "Selects the host platform for which you want to run the toolchain"

In the Build environment tab:

7. Change 'Set download directory' to 'Select download directory'

8. The 'Select distro' information bubble should say: "Selects the Yocto distribution you want"

9. The 'BB number threads' information bubble should say: "Sets the number of threads that BitBake tasks can simultaneously run. See the Poky reference manual for information". The words 'Poky reference manual' are a link to:

http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/current/poky-ref-manual/poky-ref-manual.html#var-BB_NUMBER_THREADS

10. The 'Parallel make' information bubble should say: "Sets the maximum number of threads the host can use during the build.  See the Poky reference manual for information". The words 'Poky reference manual' are a link to:

http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/current/poky-ref-manual/poky-ref-manual.html#var-BB_PARALLEL_MAKE

11. The 'Select SSTATE mirror' information bubble should say: "Select the pre-built mirror that will speed your build"

In the Others tab:

12. The 'Add you own variables' information bubble should say: "These are key/value pairs for your extra settings. Click 'Add' and then directly edit the key and the value"

Marked as verified. 

Only a very small question: in the 'Build toolchain' information bubble text, the word 'Host' appears with a capital 'H', when Scott wrote 'host'. Is there any reason why this word should start with a capital letter?
