-============================================
+ScummVM-PS2 0.8.1 Readme
+========================
 
 You need a PlayStation 2 with a modchip of your choice in order to run ScummVM.
 
-ScummVM expects the game data either on CD-R/DVD-R or on the Harddisk.
- It tries to mount the partition hdd0:+ScummVM on startup and basically treats
- it in the same way as the DVD drive.

  Creating the partition and putting the datafiles there is up to you.
 
-In order to use a USB Mouse and USB Keyboard, you need Sony's USB driver,
- the USBD.IRX.  As it is Sony property, we can not offer it for download.
- Later versions of the USBD apparently are incompatible. It should work if
- the file is smaller than ~30 KB.
-I am using the USBD from the Demo Disc that was shipped with my PS2.
-You can also use ScummVM without the USB driver but you can only use the
- Gamepad in that case.
+ Not all USB mass storage devices are supported, but the most common ones should
+  work. If you attach a device and it gets recognized, it will show up together
+  with the CD/DVD drive and HDD in the "Add Game" dialog.
+
+ Most USB Mice and Keyboards should work, too. I have a Logitech MX500 mouse that
+  doesn't work, all the other devices I tried worked fine.
 
 
 Creating a CD-R using CD-Tool
 =============================
+
 Copy any games you want on the CD over into the directory where you extracted
  the ZIP file. Don't copy any files directly into the directory of the
  ScummVM.ELF, those files are ignored. Instead, have each game in its own
  directory.
-File- and directorynames should be DOS 8+3, if they aren't, they'll get
- renamed.
 
-If you run windows, just double click the make_iso.bat.
-Wait while it creates the ISO image and burn it with Nero
-or any other CD writing software.

-Unfortunately, writing DVD images with cd-tool is currently broken.

 - The cd/dvd drive is a bottleneck, that's why you should compress the games
