https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=267002 Bug ID: 267002 Summary: FreeBSD Handbook: incoherent sentences in kernel config section Product: Documentation Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Many People Priority: --- Component: Books & Articles Assignee: doc@FreeBSD.org Reporter: henrix@camandro.org Created attachment 237245 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=237245&action=edit first patch I'm attaching 2 patches to this bug report regarding some incoherent sentences (and one mistake) in the kernel configuration section. The first patch has the following changes: 1. "ath wireless Ethernet driver" is incorrect; use "ath wireless network driver" instead. 2. "Source can be installed using Git and the instructions in <ref>" doesn't sound correct; rephased a bit. 3. The troubleshooting note starts with a very long and confusing sentence; rephrased. The second patch is more an RFC: I don't think it's correct, or, at least, it isn't complete. Basically, there are asciidoc mistakes in the documentation. And I found some while reading the above mentioned section in the handbook. As the patch description suggests, have a look at the paragraph that starts with "The format of the kernel configuration file is simple" in [1]. That paragraph misses two '#' characters. Anyway, the details are all in that patch description, including how the patch was (automatically) generated (except for a manual change).
