A 404 issue was reported for a link in the README.txt here: ([jdocs] Installation instructions missing for 5.3.3
#2123)

The README.txt file are frequently reviewed and updated as required.
https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/blob/5.4-dev/README.txt
https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/blob/6.1-dev/README.txt

https://docs.joomla.org/Special:MyLanguage/J5.x:Installing_Joomla which is referred to in section 8 of the readme still is giving a 404, while the 6.1 readme gives the J5.x link still.

I would like to work on this issue.
I will update the outdated documentation links in README.txt for both the 5.4-dev and 6.1-dev branches to use guide.joomla.org as suggested.
