From 6437918326735717a037361cf4f2069ee72713a8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Fifield Date: Sun, 19 Aug 2012 12:24:35 +1000 Subject: [PATCH] doc swift service start issues with no ring fixes bug 996944 As in the bug report, users following this guide exactly will encounter a failed service start at this point in the manual. This isn't a big problem - the ring files just need to be copied first. Rather than significantly changing the flow of the docs, this change adds a simple warning so that first-time users aren't alarmed.
