+Daily builds of Odin are available at ftp://ftp.os2.org/odin/daily.
+For people that do not have a suitable development setup for ODIN, 
+we provide the latest binary code that way.

 Odin daily builds are now also distributed as WarpIn archives.
 WarpIn is a generic OS/2 installation application that can be
 downloaded from warpin.netlabs.org.
 
-To install Odin run warpin.exe with the name of the daily build archive
+Manual installation without WarpIn is not recommended. If you don't use WarpIn,
+then you *must* execute odininst.exe in the Odin system32 directory. (the first

+To install Odin, run warpin.exe with the name of the daily build archive
 as parameter.
 Follow the instructions to complete the installation.
