* packages: add ability for packages to create usersYann E. MORIN2013-04-251-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Packages that install daemons may need those daemons to run as a non-root, or an otherwise non-system (eg. 'daemon'), user. Add infrastructure for packages to create users, by declaring the FOO_USERS variable that contain a makedev-syntax-like description of the user(s) to add. Signed-off-by: "Yann E.

* manual: rework the whole documentation stubSamuel Martin2012-11-151-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new skeleton of the manual as it has been thought: 1. About Buildroot: Presentation of Buildroot 2. Starting up: Everything to quickly and easily start working with Buildroot 3. Working with Buildroot Basics to make your work fitting your needs 4. Troubleshooting 5. Going further in Buildroot's innards Explaination of how buildroot is organised, how it works, etc 6. Developer Guidelines 7. Getting involved 8. Contibuting to Buildroot 9. Legal notice 10. Appendix It is easy to distinguish two parts in this plan: - Sections 1 to 4 mainly address people starting with Buildroot - Sections 5 to 10 are more focused on how to develop Buildroot itself Most of the existing sections have just been moved in the hierarchy, few were split and dispatch in, what i think was the relevant section, and numerous others have been created.
