The file readme.1st from the v2 directory has this info. The current
version of readme.1st does, however, locate that info below a very long
list of files most of which you don't need, and this is somewhat
counter-intuitive.

Regarding rebooting after changing the autoexec.bat: that isn't actually
necessary. Just manually run from the command line each line you added.
I.e., insert the set djgpp and path %path%;blah blah bin lines into
autoexec.bat, save the changes and exit whatever editor, then type the
same two lines at the C:\> prompt.
