Robert,
This "poky" term in the link is because back when the manual was first set up I used "poky-ref-manual" as the manuals folder. The easiest fix would be set up a symlink from a more appropriately named link. A fix that has a lot more ripples would be to rename the directory to something like "ref-manual." The point about noting the BSP chapter is wrong and should not be there. I am copying Jeff so that it can get fixed on the website's documentation page.
Thanks,
Scott
