Comment(by isforinsects):

 From #6904:

 {{{


 Man page is a integral part of Linux.However, in XO by default there is no
 any man page So, Is it possible to add man page in xo by default?

 I have done the following steps to make man page work in my XO
 Steps:

 1) Install groff-1.18.***.i386

 2) Install man-1.6f-***.i386

 3) Copy /etc/man.config from linux machine to xo under same location

 4) Copy Man folder /usr/share/man into into xo

 5) Add MANPATH in man.config file (location where you have copied man
 pages)

 (If you don't need all the man page in your XO you can search and delete
 the file from "man" folder)

 }}} quoth surendra


 Have another rough suggestion that combines bash Man and Userspace Library
 bundle man pages.  Please see: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Man
