INSTALL for esep (Evolution Scheduling and Evolving Processes)
Version 1.5, dated December 28, 1997 
Version 1.4, dated October 3, 1997 
Version 1.3, dated August 10, 1997 
Version 1.2, dated July 4, 1997 

Only three steps to install this scheduler.
First, don't forget to unpack this package.

  gzip -dc esep.tgz | tar -xvf -     --- you can't count this a step...
 
1. do_patch    
   This copies four patched files, sched.c, sched.h, fork.c, and entry.S
   to your linux directory, and updates old files. 
   Supposed that your linux directory is /usr/src/linux, if it's not,
   edit do_patch to change it.

2. rebuild your kernel, and you know how to do it
 
3. make install
   This compiles the file, esep.c, to be esep executable
   and copies program esep and manual esep.1.gz to 
   /usr/local/bin and /usr/man/man1 respectively. 

Note: You can do step 3 before step 2. I think it's OK!
      After step 2, don't forget to reboot the new kernel.

 
That's it. So simple. Please try it yourself.


Thanks to every one who sends bug reports/fixes, commentary, etc.


Have fun, and have a good day.
