If you have two machines and you use Debian/GNU-Linux make: 

'apt-get install boa man2html info2www' 

Go to your WinSuck machine and open the page <http://yourserver/doc/> 

If you have only one Machine and you use multiboot, configure man2html 
for caching the created html-Pages a little bit longer... 

Call every Manpage once and then copy the HTML_Pages from the cahe to 
the VFAT partition.... and have Fun.
