 Quick install instructions
 --------------------------
 
-For a fresh install /kolab needs to be an empty directory with at least 2GB of
-free disk space. You can use a symlink, but do _not_ use an NFS mounted drive.
-If the directory does not yet exist, it will automatically be created.
-Make sure that the following names are not in /etc/passwd or /etc/groups,
-as openpkg will want to create them: "kolab" "kolab-r" "kolab-n"
+Kolab server with Horde needs about 1GB of disk space for the initial
+install. By default the directory /kolab will be used, which should be
+an empty directory or a symbolic link to an empty directory. If this
+directory does not yet exist, it will be automatically created.
 
-Check http://www.openpkg.org/documentation/ for additional documentation
-for the OpenPKG packaging system.
+For production use it is recommended to create a separate partition for
+/kolab (2GB to have some spare) and partitions for /kolab/var (at least
+2GB for log files, virus filtering and caches) and /kolab/var/imapd/spool
+(with enough space for your users' mails). For evaluation you could
+start with the 2GB partition for /kolab (or 2GB free space on / if you
+only have one big partition for your test system) and create the other
+partitions when needed. Do _not_ use an NFS mounted drive!
+
+Make sure that the following names are not in /etc/passwd or /etc/groups,
+as OpenPKG will want to create them: "kolab" "kolab-r" "kolab-n"
 
 To install the Kolab server, you need to download the files from the
 directory containing this file (1st.README) to some local directory.
