+============================================================================
+ OVERVIEW
+============================================================================
+The binaries of ShellBinPkg are generated with ShellPkg project and built with BaseTools Package (r11544). The binaries are built with no debug information by building with "RELEASE" target.
+
+The following steps can help to re-generate these binaries for customization:
+1. Check out EDK II to $(WORKSPACE)
+(svn https://edk2.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/edk2/trunk/edk2).
+2. Under $(WORKSPACE) directory (i.e. c:\EdkII),
+ To generate Shell, execute: "build -a IA32 -a X64 -p ShellPkg\ShellPkg.dsc -b RELEASE".
+
+
+============================================================================
+ HOW TO INCORPORATE THIS SHELL INTO NT32
+============================================================================
+The instructions below are included as a sample and template on how a
+developer may integrate this code into an existing platform:
+
+
+1. Update system PCDs to support this new module
+ Update the PCD as follows using the Shell's PCD:
+ gEfiIntelFrameworkModulePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdShellFile|{ 0x83, 0xA5, 0x04, 0x7C, 0x3E, 0x9E, 0x1C, 0x4F, 0xAD, 0x65, 0xE0, 0x52, 0x68, 0xD0, 0xB4, 0xD1 }
+
+2. Remove the old shell from the NT32 Firmware list
+ Remove the FILE APPLICATION section for the old shell.
+
+3. Add this shell to the NT32 firmware list
+ Add the Shell.INF to the end of the list of DXE modules.
+
+4. Build NT32
+
+============================================================================
+ KNOWN LIMITATIONS

+1. RM can delete current working directory via other map name.
+2. DrvCfg is not functional.
+3. ifConfig permanent settings are under investigation (may not function correctly)
+4. Shell documentation is in development and forthcoming.
