 If you only want to build a snapshot or a fresh CVS checkout of the
 sources, you should go into the `mono' sibling directory and issue the
-following command:
+make fullbuild command, like this:
 
-	  ./autogen --prefix=/usr/local
+	  cd ../mono
+	  ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr/local
 	  make fullbuild
 
 That will build and install the code in a single pass.  The
 compilation is bundled with the build due to dependencies on the class
 libraries on the runtime.
