There was inconsistent use when referencing the getting-started manual. The manual's name does not include the word "Manual". So, I cleaned this up across the manual set and also in the mega-manual.sed file, which was incorrectly processing the links to that manual that do not target a specific section.

Welcome to the Yocto Project Concepts Manual!
|
|
This manual provides conceptual information that helps you
|
|
better understand the Yocto Project.
|
|
You can learn about Yocto Project components,
|
|
cross-development toolchain generation, shared-state cache,
|
|
and many other concepts.

<emphasis>Complete Step-by-step Instructions for Development Tasks:</emphasis>
|
|
Instructional procedures reside in other manuals within
|
|
the Yocto Project documentation set.
|
|
For example, the
|
|
<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_DEV_URL;'>Yocto Project Development Tasks Manual</ulink>
|
|
provides examples on how to perform various development
|
|
tasks.
|
|
As another example, the
|
|
<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_SDK_URL;'>Yocto Project Application Development and the Extensible Software Development Kit (eSDK)</ulink>
|
|
manual contains detailed instructions on how to install an
|
|
SDK, which is used to develop applications for target
|
|
hardware.

<emphasis>Reference Material:</emphasis>

This type of material resides in an appropriate reference
|
|
manual.
|
|
For example, system variables are documented in the
|
|
<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_REF_URL;'>Yocto Project Reference Manual</ulink>.
|

As another example, the
|
|
<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_BSP_URL;'>Yocto Project Board Support Package (BSP) Developer's Guide</ulink>
|

contains reference information on BSPs.

<emphasis>Detailed Public Information Not Specific to the

Yocto Project:</emphasis>

For example, exhaustive information on how to use Git
|

is better covered with Internet searches and official
|
|
Git Documentation than through the Yocto Project
|
|
documentation.

Because this manual presents information for many different
|
|
concepts, supplemental information is recommended for full
|
|
comprehension.
