Several people have indicated a quick start section like Robert's
wiki page would be good in the YP QS. I agree that the idea of
diverting the super user to a shortened, more concise section that
let's you kick the tires of Yocto is a good idea. I have created a
section based on Robert's example from his wiki page. You can see
it at this link:

Feedback and comments welcome.

i think it was gary thomas who pointed out an even simpler way to
set up premirrors than what you copied from my QS page:

SOURCE_MIRROR_URL ?= "file:///home/rpjday/dl/"
INHERIT += "own-mirrors"
BB_GENERATE_MIRROR_TARBALLS = "1"
# BB_NO_NETWORK = "1"
