 WHAT IS THIS DRIVER?
 ==================
 This module implements the native filesystem of BeOS <http://www.be.com/>
-for the linux 2.4.1 and later kernels. Currently it is a read-only implementation.

 Which is it, BFS or BEFS?
 ================
 Be, Inc said, "BeOS Filesystem is officially called BFS, not BeFS". 
-But Unixware Boot Filesystem is called bfs, too. And they are already in the
-kernel.
-Because of this nameing conflict, on Linux the BeOS filesystem is called befs.

 HOW TO INSTALL
 ==============
 step 1.  Install the BeFS  patch into the source code tree of linux.
 
 Apply the patchfile to your kernel source tree.
-Assuming that your kernel source is in /foo/bar/linux and the patchfile is called
-patch-befs-xxx, you would do the following:

 The BeFS module is not a standard part of the linux kernel, so you must first
 enable support for experimental code under the "Code maturity level" menu.
 
-Then, under the "Filesystems" menu will be an option called "BeFS filesystem (experimental)",
-or something like that. Enable that option (it is fine to make it a module).
