   Note:
       There are a number of different flags that you can use when building
       udev.  They are as follows:
-       prefix - set this to the default root that you want udev to be
+       prefix
+               set this to the default root that you want udev to be
                installed into.  This works just like the 'configure --prefix'
                script does.  Default value is ''.  Only override this if you
                really know what you are doing.
-       USE_KLIBC - if set to 'true', udev is built and linked against the included
-               version of klibc.  Default value is 'false'.
-       DEBUG - if set to 'true', debugging messages will be sent to the syslog
-               as udev is run.  Default value is 'false'.
-       USE_DBUS -  if set to 'true', DBUS messages will be sent everytime udev
+       USE_KLIBC
+               if set to 'true', udev is built and linked against the
+               included version of klibc.  Default value is 'false'.
+       USE_LOG
+               if set to 'true', udev will emit messages to the syslog when
+               it creates or removes device nodes.  This is helpful to see
+               what udev is doing.  This is enabled by default.  Note, if you
+               are building udev against klibc it is recommended that you
+               disable this option (due to klibc's syslog implementation.)
+       USE_DBUS
+               if set to 'true', DBUS messages will be sent everytime udev
                creates or removes a device node.  This requires that DBUS
                development headers and libraries be present on your system to
                build properly.  Default value is 'false'.
+       DEBUG
+               if set to 'true', debugging messages will be sent to the syslog
+               as udev is run.  Default value is 'false'.
+       KERNEL_DIR
+               If this is not set it will default to /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build
+               This is used if USE_KLIBC=true to find the kernel include
+               directory that klibc needs to build against.  This must be set
+               if you are not building udev while running a 2.6 kernel.
 
       So, if you want to build udev using klibc with debugging messages, you
       would do:
        make USE_KLIBC=true DEBUG=true
 
-      Note: If you want to use klibc, you will have to set up the "linux"
-            symlink properly.  See the file klibc/klibc/README and pay
-           attention to step "a)" there.
