I pushed the draft documentation for IUK to
feature/incremental-upgrades-integration, see eee4313..5f3f56b.
The main course is:
http://git.tails.boum.org/tails/tree/wiki/src/doc/first_steps/upgrade.mdwn?h=feature/incremental-upgrades-integration
As always, think about the structure of the doc, the workflow, and the
content first, then go into the phrasing if you want. I'll do the markup
later on.
I also had to propose several changes to the dialogs and error messages.
So here they are. I hope it's clear which blob I'm referring to. I added
some notes flagged XXX along the way. The title of the section should be
the titles of the windows but I think that most of them were already ok.
Not enough memory available
---------------------------
*Not enough memory available to check for upgrades.*
- Make sure this system satisfies the requirements for running Tails.
See
file:///usr/share/doc/tails/website/doc/about/requirements.en.html
- Try to restart Tails and upgrade again.
- Or do a manual upgrade.
See
https://tails.boum.org/doc/first_steps/upgrade#manual
XXX: I get this error message when trying to do the upgrade from a VM
with 1024MB. That's in contradiction with what is on the
requirement page at the moment.
Error while checking for upgrades
---------------------------------
*Could not determine whether an upgrade is available from our website.*
Check your network connection, and restart Tails to try upgrading again.

it might already be in the stderr?
