+Hello,
+
+Thanks for noticing this README-encrypted file. :-)
+
+When found on a disc-media based Slackware distribution, this file indicates
+an incomplete software series that continues on the next disc.
+
+The installer will ask for the next disc and look for the rest of the
+packages there. If you are installing packages from the command line, look
+at the next disc to make certain that you install all the packages you need.
+
+For example, to split /slackware/kde across two discs, both discs will need
+to have /slackware/kde directories. The first one should contain a copy of
+this file. The second one should have the install.end file, the additional
+packages not in the first directory, and an extra copy of the tagfile file.
+
+Have fun!
+
