Errata

Text in the "Problem" section switches between "I" and "You". Please make consistent. Most are second person. 2.6/2.9/2.11/2.12 use first person. There are even mixed cases: 2.10.: "You have setup VNC, but would like to share the screen on your Raspberry Pi as if it was another Mac on my[sic!] network." 3.1.: "You want to move files around using a graphical interface like I [sic!] can on a Mac or PC." 3.11: "Sometime commands don’t work because you have insufficient privileges. How do I [sic!] issue commands with super user privileges?"

Page 2, second paragraph (starting with second sentence): "This table also includes the original Revision 1 Model B board that was soon updated with revision 2. You can tell if you have one of these boards beacuse they have a black audio socket rather than the blue socket of the revision 2 boards." There is a typo in the last sentence of the paragraph: "beacuse" instead of "because". The last two sentences (quoted above) of the paragraph should be reworded as there is some confusion over what "one of these boards" refers to in the last sentence. I was reading it as a reference to the last thing mentioned in the previous sentence which was a revision 2 board. The last part of the sentence makes it seem it was referring to a Rev 1 board. I have a Rev 2, model B with a blue audio socket.
