- NOTE: Before installing util-linux. READ the README or risk nuking
- your system. Thank you.

- Util-linux is a suite of essential utilities for any Linux system.
- Its primary audience is system integrators (like the people at Debian
- and RedHat) and DIY Linux hackers. The rest of you will get a digested
- version of util-linux installed with no risk to your sanity.
-
- Util-linux is attempting to be portable, but the only platform it
- has been tested much on is linux/intel. There have however been
- integrated several patches for Arm, m68k, and Alpha linux versions.
- The present version is known to compile on at least Linux 1.2/libc 4
- and Linux 2.0/Libc 5 and has also been tested with libc 6 on intel,
- alpha and sparc. People are encouraged to make _nice_ patches to
- util-linux and submitting them to util-linux@math.uio.no. Thank you.
