Subject: [PATCH] INSTALL: Fix a grammatical error
Date: Sun,  9 Nov 2025 21:04:47 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251110030448.3826278-2-development@efficientek.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251110030448.3826278-1-development@efficientek.com>

Also, add more documentation mentioning that the tests require a
"specially crafted environment" to run. Just running as root is not
enough.
