From bcc817ee058bbab91d6e88a3e1e867a4ff09aeca Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Scott Rifenbark Date: Thu, 31 Mar 2011 13:31:27 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] documentation/yocto-project-qs/yocto-project-qs.xml: Edits plus Matt Madison note regarding older host systems I made a few small edits and I added a reference to the wiki page 'https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/BuildingOnRHEL4' that has entries for older development hosts. Right now all that is there is the RHEL4 notes but the wiki page can be expanded as needed.
