+In this file you'll find notes to help you build OpenAFS on various platforms.
+
+Redhat 7.0 (i386_linux22): 
+       src/venus/kdump.c may fail to compile with the gcc included with 
+       RedHat 7.0; You'll need to use kgcc to compile it.  You should 
+       be able to use kgcc to compile all of AFS. Just add CC=kgcc 
+       to your make arguments.
+
+       When building for kernels other than the stock kernel you
+       may need to create symlinks in /usr/src named for your 
+       configuration, e.g. linux-2.2.16-22smp pointing to your
+       source tree (linux-2.2.16-22); Redhat provides a unified 
+       source tree with a switch in include/linux/version.h.
+
+HPUX 11.0 (hp_ux110):
+       Does not currently build. However, you will need to make sure 
+       the KernDevKit package from the CoreOS media is installed if
+       you wish to work on it.
