+README.SLACKWARE
+
+This build uses the mmap method for camera access, as opposed to shared memory.
+That means, there is no need to configure shared memory limits any more.
+You can revert back to the shm method by removing --enable-mmap from the build.
+
+To use ZoneMinder, you need to have Apache, PHP and MySQL.
+
+CONFIGURATION
+# Be sure to follow the dircetions in /etc/rc.d/rc.mysqld before you try and 
+  setup your database.
+
+1) Database setup:
+# mysql -u root -p
+source /usr/share/ZoneMinder/db/zm_create.sql
+use mysql;
+grant select,insert,update,delete on zm.* to 'zmuser'@localhost identified by 'zmpass';
+quit;
+
+Reload the mysql server with "mysqladmin reload -u root -p".
+
+2) Apache configuration:
+Uncomment mod_php at the end of /etc/httpd/httpd.conf.
+Add this line to httpd.conf:
+	Include /etc/zm/zm_apache.conf
+
+# You may need to chmod +x /etc/rc.d/rc.httpd first
+Restart apache with "/etc/rc.d/rc.httpd restart".
+
+To make ZoneMinder launch on system boot:
+/etc/rc.d/rc.local:
+==================================
+if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.zm ]; then
+  /etc/rc.d/rc.zm start
+fi
+
+/etc/rc.d/rc.local_shutdown:
+==================================
+if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.zm ]; then
+  /etc/rc.d/rc.zm stop
+fi
+
+Database upgrade files are provided in /usr/share/ZoneMinder/db.
+
+See http://www.zoneminder.com/wiki/index.php/Documentation#Logging for info
+on how to counter the massive amount of syslog spam that ZoneMinder generates.
+
+The ZoneMinder web interface shall be available at http://hostname/zm/
+
+Have fun!
