I don't think there are any major discrepancies between the readme and the
detail page. Here's the short installation manual:

1) Copy Gandalf executable, opening book and config file to a folder of your own
choice.
2) Remove write protection from book if copied from CD and alter config file to
your satisfaction, eg. path to tablebases and hashsize.
3) Add lines like this:
\"Gandalf_432g xboard\" /fd=PathToFolder
\"Gandalf_432g xboard\" /sd=PathToFolder
to the WinBoard.ini file under first and second program names respectively.
4) Done.

Mogens.
