Summary: docs.fp.o landing page needs 'Start here' note!
Product: Fedora Documentation
Version: devel
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: medium
Priority: low
Component: docs-requests
AssignedTo: eric(a)christensenplace.us

Classification: Fedora
Description of problem:
We have a large variety of documentation guides serving a wide range of
different users. It may be difficult for users arriving at docs.fp.o to know
where to start, especially if they are new to Fedora/Linux and are unfamiliar
with some of the technical terms.
A note on the landing page suggesting a sensible starting point for new users
could help alleviate this problem. Eg:
"New to Fedora? You can try Fedora on your PC without touching your existing
installation by following the Live Image Guide."
The end of the Live Image guide helpfully points users to the Installation
guide if they want to install :)

Description of problem:
ref: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=449299
There is a lack of documentation on restoring a system from bare metal. I have
found (see reference) that restore the root ("/") is not as simple as as just
executing the restore command when running in rescue mode.
With the current emphasis being place on use of UUIDs in both Fedora and RHEL,
the whole business of UUIDs need to be better documented.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Fedora 9

ReportedBy: eric(a)christensenplace.us
QAContact: fedora-docs-list(a)redhat.com
CC: stickster(a)gmail.com, kwade(a)redhat.com
Classification: Fedora
Description of problem:
* Previously, the release notes were located at
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/
* Their location has changed to release specific URLs.
* A link to the release notes is provided in fedora-bookmarks.
* fedora-bookmarks are imported by the browser only on *first launch* so as to
not overwrite user modifications.
The new bookmarks layout causes two problems:
1. Nobody filed a fedora-bookmarks bug so Fedora 13 (and anyone on F-11 or F-12
etc) will default to going to http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/
which is a 404. Since the bookmarks can only be imported on first launch, we
cannot push an update to fix this if the user has launched the browser (which
is extremely likely).
2. Even if I were to fix the bookmarks page to point directly to a specific
release version (which again would take effect only if someone would yum update
before launching Firefox), then if anyone updated to F-14, the bookmark would
not change and would still point to e.g. F-13.
So, I do not think that we should put version specific information into our
bookmarks URLs. To solve both of the above problems, I believe we should try to
do some User-Agent detection and redirection. Fedora browsers have an RPM NVR
attached to them.
For example:
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; es-ES; rv:1.9.2.4) Gecko/20100517
Fedora/3.6.4-1.fc13 Firefox/3.6.4
This tells us that the user's installed language is es-ES and it's a Fedora
browser, specifically running F-13. We should then redirect queries to
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/ to
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/es-ES/Fedora/13/html/Release_Notes/index.html
If we cannot figure any information out about the Fedora release or language
(or there are no relnotes in that language), I propose the default redirect
should be to the en-US version of the latest Fedora release notes.

Hi,
I just spent a couple of days trying to put the F15 Alpha Live CD image onto a
USB stick for use with my Macbook Pro.
It turns out this isn't possible.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Live_USB#Limitations
I think this ought to go on the documentation somewhere, just to save people
time.
In my case, my CD drive is dead, so I can't install Fedora.

adding FreeIPA docs to Fedora doc site?
by Deon Lackey
Hey, everybody.
I have a challenge. Right now, the FreeIPA docs are hosted on a personal fedorapeople site. Obviously, that's not the best long-term solution, especially if we want to encourage more community involvement in the docs (which we do!). Anyway, I would love do move the docs to https ://docs. fedoraproject .org/en-US/index. html .
Does anyone know how to do that?
If it helps, the docs are in a GIT repo on fedoraproject .org and they already build and package successfully in publican.
Thanks!
