+Please run the SlackBuild script as root user.
+
+You will need "postgres" user and group before running the installer, if you
+haven't installed SlackBuilds PostgreSQL you should run these commands to be
+compatible:
+
+ # groupadd -g 209 postgres
+ # useradd -u 209 -g 209 -d /var/lib/pgsql postgres
+
+otherwise, you're already setup. Also, remember to add something like:
+
+ # Start Metasploit Framework PostgreSQL
+ if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.metasploit ]; then
+ /etc/rc.d/rc.metasploit start
+ fi
+
+to /etc/rc.d/rc.local to start the shipped PostgreSQL daemon and something
+like:
+
+ # Stop Metasploit Framework PostgreSQL
+ if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.metasploit ]; then
+ /etc/rc.d/rc.metasploit stop
+ fi
+
+to /etc/rc.d/rc.local_shutdown to stop the service.
+Default database server listening port is 7175, if you want to use another
+port, just export the PG_PORT variable when running the SlackBuild, like this:
+
+ # PG_PORT="5454" ./metasploit.SalckBuild
+
+An optional cron script to keep the framework up to date is distributed inside
+the /usr/doc/metasploit-${VERSION} directory and it's called "msfupdate.sh",
+there also is a logrotate config file called "msfupdate.logrotate" which can
+be useful.
