README for hal 0.5.7.1
REQUIREMENTS
PRE/POST-INSTALL
Create a user/group haldaemon with a unused id < 99:
'groupadd -g 82 haldaemon'
'useradd -u 82 -g haldaemon -d /var/empty -s /bin/false haldaemon'
'passwd -l haldaemon'
If you wish to take advantage of the hotplug and automount-style features
that apps like gnome-mount, gnome-volume-manager, or the like offer, create
a 'plugdev' group and add your user to it, or change the 'plugdev' group in
/usr/etc/dbus-1/system.d/hal.conf to something else and make sure your user
is a member of that group.
PRECAUTION
