This seems like a solid plan to me. There's a lot of content in the guide now that's reads strictly as a launch point for the larger guides, so something more like purging paragraphs might be more appropriate than simply removing references. You have a good idea of where you want to go with it; I only make that point to ensure you don't feel obligated to keep the existing content and write around it. The hardware list is accurate, but not complete. You might want to focus on a few specific pieces of hardware instead of listing and explaining all possible options though, ie: This is how you add a network device. This virtio option might need these extra drivers on a windows guest. This is how you add a virtual block device. This virtio option might need these extra drivers on a windows guest. ( depending on how deep you want to go, you could cover switching out a windows installation iso for the virtio driver iso so it can see virtio storage, then switching back. There's a definite performance improvement in virtio over SATA emulation, but the setup is going to add a page or two to your instructions) This is how you provide an ISO to the guest. This is how you share part of the host filesystem with a linux guest These are all spice related devices. If you choose spice ( the default ) you get them automatically, here is what they do. Things like memory, CPU, input devices are set up automatically, or during initial creation. IMO my the time you have documented the device types that might need some explanation, the user is familiar with the device management screen and knows where to go, they don't need much or any explanation. Your plan seems GUI focused; I like that. It makes for a much easier read for new users when it doesn't look like you need to learn a bunch of scary programming to make it work :) We can put cli stuff somewhere else. -- -- Pete Travis - Fedora Docs Project Leadt - 'randomuser' on freenode - immanetize@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx |
