Emphasize that UNIX Perl must not be installed, and that case-sensitive
filesystems are a must.

Add instructions on how to change these things after SFU is already
installed (so a reinstall is not necessary).

+If SFU is already installed and you wish to alter these settings to work

+
+* To uninstall UNIX Perl, use Add/Remove Programs, select Microsoft

+  Add or Remove, then uncheck Utilities->UNIX Perl.
+
+* To enable case-sensitivity for the filesystem, run REGEDIT.EXE, and 
+  change the following registry key:
+
+  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\kernel
+
+  Set the DWORD value "obcaseinsensitive" to 0; then reboot.
+
+* To enable setuid binaries (optional), run REGEDIT.EXE, and change the 
+  following registry key:
+
+  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Services for UNIX

+  Set the DWORD value "EnableSetuidBinaries" to 1; then reboot.
