here are mark's two recent posts on the topic:

What Does it Mean to Be Fat-Adapted? | Mark's Daily Apple

How to Become Fat-Adapted and Other Questions Answered | Mark's Daily Apple

he gets right into how to become fat adapted right after the intro on the second one, using these suggestions:
Ramp up your fat intake.
Reduce your daily carb intake to about 50 grams if sedentary, 100-150 if you are highly active.
Avoid lean protein.
Reduce your workout intensity.
Be nutritionally replete.

but, still, you should really read the book.

I highly recommend the book "The Art and Science of Low Carbohydrate Living" by Phinney and Volek. It gives you the why and the how.
