A copy of the license is included in the section entitled +% ``GNU Free Documentation License''. + +Installation of mtools is now pretty straightforward: + + 1. Run ./configure + 2. Run make + + Configuration options: + + * Use ./configure --enable-vold to compile mtools to use Solaris' +vold instead of directly accessing the floppy disk + * Use ./configure --disable-xdf to disable support for Xdf disks on Linux + * Use ./configure --enable-new-vold to compile mtools to use the *new* +vold for Solaris. With this, you no longer need precmd=volcheck, and +users don't need to type "eject" before pushing the button. + +Further doc can be found in the manpages, and in the texinfo doc. The +texinfo doc contains the same info as the manpages, but is more up to +date. To generate a printable doc, make dvi. To generate an info file, +make info. |
