Look in _main.php (in the directory of your choosen skin) for

 <?php $Item->Content(); ?>

this gives a result like:

=>Read more

Change it to

<?php $Item->content( '#', '#', 'Read More', '' ); ?>

for a result like this:

Read more

Change it to

<?php $Item->content( '#', '#', 'Read More', 'This is the rest of the post' ); ?>

for a result like this on the first page:

Read more

and this on the permalink page:

first part of post‘

This is the rest of the post

the rest of the post

Or change it to

<?php $Item->content('#','#',$Item->get('title'),'','<p>Read full text of ','...</p>','htmlbody',10); ?>

for a result like this:

Read full text of -this is the title of the post-
