+This optware port is made for the WDLXTV firmware
+ running on WDTV HD Live hardware, see http://www.wdlxtv.com
+
+Installs in 4 simple steps:
+- format usb storage with ext3
+- put the wdlxtv_optware.app.bin in it
+- login from telnet or ssh 
+- type optware-install.sh
+
+Please note that:
+- the usb storage *needs* to be ext3 formatted
+ but this doesn't means that you need the ext3 version of firmware
+- this port builds the /opt directory inside your usb storage
+ (there could be more options in future, to use NFS for instance)
