| 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. |
