+Next, you need to create the databases used by RhodeCode. I recommend that you
+use sqlite (default) or postgresql. If you choose a database other than the
+default ensure you properly adjust the db url in your production.ini
+configuration file to use this other database. Create the databases by running
+the following command::
 
  paster setup-app production.ini
 
-- This command will create all needed tables and an admin account. 
-  When asked for a path You can either use a new location of one with already 
-  existing ones. RhodeCode will simply add all new found repositories to 
-  it's database. Also make sure You specify correct path to repositories.
-- Remember that the given path for mercurial_ repositories must be write 
-  accessible for the application. It's very important since RhodeCode web 
-  interface will work even without such an access but, when trying to do a 
-  push it'll eventually fail with permission denied errors. 
+This will prompt you for a "root" path. This "root" path is the location where
+RhodeCode will store all of its repositories on the current machine. After
+entering this "root" path ``setup-app`` will also prompt you for a username and password
+for the initial admin account which ``setup-app`` sets up for you.

+  repositories at the chosen location to it's database. (Note: make sure you

 Setting up Whoosh full text search
 ----------------------------------
 
-Starting from version 1.1 whoosh index can be build using paster command.
-You have to specify the config file that stores location of index, and
-location of repositories (`--repo-location`).
+Starting from version 1.1 the whoosh index can be build by using the paster
+command ``make-index``. To use ``make-index`` You must specify the configuration

-There is possible also to pass `-f` to the options
