                       This version of the
                       <emphasis>Yocto Project Linux Kernel Development Manual</emphasis>
                       is for the &YOCTO_DOC_VERSION; release of the
                       Yocto Project.
                       To be sure you have the latest version of the manual
                       for this release, go to the
                       <ulink url='&YOCTO_HOME_URL;/documentation'>Yocto Project documentation page</ulink>
                       and select the manual from that site.
                       Manuals from the site are more up-to-date than manuals
                       derived from the Yocto Project released TAR files.

                       If you located this manual through a web search, the
                       version of the manual might not be the one you want
                       (e.g. the search might have returned a manual much
                       older than the Yocto Project version with which you
                       are working).
                       You can see all Yocto Project major releases by
                       visiting the
                       <ulink url='&YOCTO_WIKI_URL;/wiki/Releases'>Releases</ulink>
                       page.
                       If you need a version of this manual for a different
                       Yocto Project release, visit the
                       <ulink url='&YOCTO_HOME_URL;/documentation'>Yocto Project documentation page</ulink>
                       and select the manual set by using the
                       "ACTIVE RELEASES DOCUMENTATION" or "DOCUMENTS ARCHIVE"
                       pull-down menus.
