I included a new note to help users of pre-15 release Fedora enable sudo.
Along with this I repositioned the note about using non-supported
distros into the main text. Overall the section includes more information
and is organized a bit better.

Added text suggesting that BB_NUMBER_THREADS be set to twice the number
of available processor cores and that PARALLEL_MAKE be set equal to the
number of processor cores. Similar changes were made to local.conf
based on work by Josh.

Removed several instances to the 5.0 Bernard release. I replaced
these with the 5.0.1 release. I also re-wrote a paragraph that
instructs the user on where to find and download the most recent
YP tarball. It used to point to the Index of /Downloads into the
"yocto-1.0" folder. I now instruct the user to go to the
Yocto Project website and download the desired release from there.

In the example for building an image the command
'source poky-bernard-5.0/oe-init-build-env poky-5.0-build' was used.
Torsten Scheck notified Jeff Osier-mixon and sent the fix to
change to 'source poky-bernard-5.0/poky-init-build-env poky-5.0-build'
I made the change.

The command used in the example to build an image was using
'bitbake core-image-sato', which is only available in master and
not Bernard. So, I changed the command to be 'bitbake poky-image-sato'
at Dave Stewart's request. He located and pointed out the error.

In the Quick Start there is a note indicating that you should run

are running Fedora 14 or another distribution that ships with GNU.
Colin Walters submitted a patch that offerred an URL for further
explanation on a Make Bug. The URL is
http://www.mail-archive.com/bug-make@gnu.org/msg06220.html. Rather
than submit Colin's patch verbatim I updated the note to include the
reference with a little different wording.
This extra information submitted by Colin will be very helpful.

This is first guess at the correct example commands and directory
names for the Bernard 5.0 release. I don't have any real directories
available to look at and doc changes are supposed to be frozen before the
actual build. So these are guesses and will need reviewed.

1. Added Richard Purdie's general editing feedback to the "Welcome" and
"Introducing the Yocto Project Development Environment" sections.
2. Added Kevin Tian's feedback: 1) changed "Sudo" to "sudo", 2) reversed
the order of the sample "cd" and "source" commands since the "source" command
builds the directory structure first so changing to the directory before running
"source" made no sense, 3) removed the "bitbake qemu-native" command.
