-TRYING OUT MTD
---------------
-There are two ways to use the latest MTD code. The first method is if your
-are starting with a brand new kernel tree with not other patches applied.
-The second method is if you have a kernel you are already making modifications
-to and you simply want to get the latest MTD code.
-
-METHOD #1
----------
-  1) Grab the latest patch for your kernel revision with the 'mtd-patch-'
-     prefix.
-
-  2) Go to the top-level kernel directory and do 'patch -p1 < [patch-file]'.
-
-
-METHOD #2
----------
-  1) Edit the 'patchin.sh' script and change the LINUXDIR path if needed.
-
-  2) Do 'source patchin.sh'.
-
-  3) If you want the help text for all the MTD options, merge the
-     'Configure.help' file found in the repository with the one in
-     your kernel.
 
-The patches used in Method #1 are update every Friday morning.
