I was looking at my release procedure with a view to making sure each
release of ELKS is accessible as possible to users, and I realised
that the lack of any kind of immediate documentation with the
binary images is a serious flaw. I also realised that many things that I take
for granted are not at all obvious to a novice user.
So I decided I need to put a README and an INSTALL file with the distribution
in future releases, but that I am not really qualified to write them.
Is there anyone who could write these files? All they need to contain is
brief information that a basic Linux user can understand on how to use
the files in images.zip to create the apropriate disk image for their
machine with some pointers to the FAQ for how to deal with all the source
level stuff.
It would also be useful if in the future the same file could contain
information on how to boot ELKS on a Psion 3.
Anyone who wants to contribute to the project, but can't code, here is your
chance. Don't worry about discussing in depth what the files should contain.
Just write something and we will go from there.
