2. How to Install
-----------------
-Use make to create the library and the commands.
+Run the "configure" script to generate Makefiles. Use "make" to build the
+library and utilities. Use "make install" to install the binaries and the
+header files. "make uninstall" will delete all installed binaries and
+header files.
+The header files are installed in /usr/include/sysfs by default. In case
+a different path is desired, specify "includedir=xxx" while running configure
+as in
+
+./configure --includedir="path for header installs"
