+Requirements:
+=============
+
+1) packages:
+------------
+
+you need to have the distro repositery mounted in /export.

+on top of the mdk10.0 base + its updates, the following packages were
+updated from cooker:

+- misc bug fixes:
+ o drakconf-10-13mdk

+ * globetrotter support
+- root=LABEL=foobar and boot from USB support:
+ o mkinitrd-3.5.18-10mdk

+- coexistance:
+ o glibc with /etc/ld.so.conf.d/ support
+ o ATI driver

+Note: once you've updated some packages, you need to run "gendistrib
+ /export".
+
+
+2) local checkout of drakx:
+---------------------------
+
+you need a copy of gi/perl-install in ../perl-install as well as
+gi/mdk-stage1.
+
+you need to install the following packages: gcc, e2fsprogs,
+ldetect-devel, libext2fs2-devel, libxfree86-devel, perl-devel,
+perl-URPM, rpm-devel, rpmtools, and urpmi.
+
+then you need to type "make c" in ../perl-install.
+
+last but not least, you need to copy list_modules from gi/kernel into
+perl-instéall and gi/mdk-stage1/pcmcia_/probe.c into perl-install/c.
+
