crm doc glitches

hi --

i'm finally upgrading crm -- i've been running BlameRaul since
2005.  it's been fine, but in the last 6 months or so the false
positive rate seems to have gone up, and since my css files seems
unbalanced, it was time to start over.  wish me luck.  :-)

several things i noticed since i had to re-read the
CRM...HOWTO.txt file:  i'm now running BlameSteveJobs

    - there's no packaged TRE in this release -- the doc should be
	updated to reflect that.  i've been using the TRE that comes
	with ubuntu for years.

    - color me dense, but the difference between "-u dir" and
	"--fileprefix foo" doesn't really jump out at me.  i don't
	seem to need --fileprefix (everything's in the "-u" directory),
	but i wasn't sure for a while whether i would.  i.e.,
	what exactly will be relocated with --fileprefix?

    - the user is told to become root much to early, during
	configuration and build of both crm and TRE.  i'd let
	them do all that as themselves, and then just change the
	installation command from "make install" to "sudo make
	install".  more concise, and safer.

    - there's no mention that maillib.crm needs to be installed.
	it turns out it's pretty important.  ;-)

and finally, a usage question:  this is the first time i've used
mailreaver.  how is the size of the reaver_cache controlled?

many thanks!
