+This directory contains stuff necessary to create and initialize a
+Moira database.  Note that some other directories rely on files here
+(notably newdb), and that the newmoira program relies on other files.
+
+STEPS TO CREATE A DATABASE (Ingres-specific instructions):
+
+-1.Make sure there is enough disk space on the partition which is to
+   hold the database.  Building the indexes for Athena takes something
+   like 50 Meg of free disk space, *after* the ~100 Meg for the base DB.
+0. If necessary, run "destroydb moira" from the shell. [a few seconds]
+1. Run "createdb moira" from the shell. [a minute or so]
+2. Run the sql commands in src/db/schema to create the tables. [a few seconds]
+3. Run mrrestore. [10-20 hours on a decstation]
+4. If you want any queries to be publically executable, change their
    capacls entries from list_id 2 to 1.
-5. run the quel commands in dbopt to create indices on the data.
+5. Run the sql commands in src/db/dbopt to create indices on the data.
+   Any failures are probably due to insufficient disk space.  (Check
+   /ingres/files/errlog.log to make sure.) [ <= 1 hour on a decstation]

 Example:
 
-    createdb sms
-    quel sms
-           \i newdb
-           \g
-           \q
-    newmoira

-           600
-           mar
-    quel sms
-           \i dbopt
-           \g
-           \q
+    createdb moira
+    sql moira
