Actually, some more (detailed) documentation on the new installation

Concerning this and a number of other changes (NFS comes to mind), wasn't
there a README that came with 4.4lite?  Shouldn't that be included with
the FBSD2.0 release?  It might answer a lot of questions...So that you
guys wouldn't be so pestered.
