FOLLOW THESE SIMPLE GUIDELINES:
-------------------------------
-If /usr/src/linux contains the patched kernel for ebtables:
- %make install
-Otherwise:
- %make KERNEL_DIR=<<where-the-patched-kernel-is>> install
+Compiling the source code and putting the files in the right directories:
+%make install
-optional:
-If your /usr/include/linux directory is a symbolic link, use the SYMLINK=y
-option. When unsure, don't use this. If the cp program produces errors
-when executing make install, use this option.
+If you are using the CVS code or need your own kernel includes, do this
+instead (change the include directory to the appropriate one):
+%make install NONSTANDARD=y KERNEL_INCLUDES=/usr/src/linux/include
WHAT GETS INSTALLED?
--------------------
-- The needed kernel headers are placed in /usr/include/linux/netfilter_bridge/
- That's why it needs the KERNEL_DIR. If the SYMLINK=y option is supplied,
- /usr/include/linux will be a symbolic link.
- The ebtables manual gets installed in /usr/local/man/man8
To put the manual somewhere else, include MANDIR=<<man-path/man>> as
option on the command line.
