Basic Installation 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

To do a basic build and install:

$ ./configure
$ make
And as root
$ make install

This should leave the executable "hammerhead" in /usr/local/bin.

Normally when running hammerhead it expects a configuration
file in /etc/hammerhead/hh.conf (by default). You
may provide an argument as an alternative configuration file.
ie. hammerhead test.conf

Pthreads
~~~~~~~~

You can compile Hammerhead to use pthreads instead of multiple
process:

$ ./configure --with-pthreads=yes
$ make
And as root
$ make install

Pthreads seem to be less efficient (in general) than multiple
processes (for Hammerhead). This is certainly the case for multiple 
CPU machines.

Sorry this is rather brief documentation, it needs improving.
