To be honest the best explaination is supplied with the kernel,
download it, uncompress it to /usr/src/linux and read the README. Do
as it says and you should be fine, be aware if you're running XFS, you
need to patch the kernel first in that case otherwise you're not going
to have much luck reading the filesystem.
