+Installing Archiva
+
+  The quickest way to install Archiva is to use the standalone distribution. This includes a bundled Jetty server, started using the Plexus Application Server.
+  For more information on advanced configuration of this instance, refer to the {{{adminguide/standalone.html} Administration Guide}}.
+
+  To get started right away, you can run the following after unpacking:
+
+----
+./bin/linux-x86-32/run.sh console
+----
+
+  You will need to choose a different start command based on your platform, or use the generic <<<./bin/plexus.sh>>> script. The <<<console>>> argument
+  starts the server with the logs going to standard output, and waits for Ctrl+C to stop the server.
+
+  <<Note:>> A Derby exception "Schema 'SA' does not exist" occurs, but is not of concern.
+
+  Archiva is now running on <<<http://localhost:8080/archiva/>>>
+
+Setting up your Archiva instance
+
+  You can now browse the web administration of Archiva. There will be a few basic setup tasks to get started.
+
+   * On the first page - setup your administration user. The password requires a numerical character and must not be
+   longer than 8 chars. You'll then need to log in. User 'admin' as the username and the password you've entered.
+
+   * On the second page - setup your first repository. It can be both an m1 and an m2 repository.
+
+   * On the third page - setup your indexing. Mostly this means choosing a directory to put the index in. It'll
+   re-index every hour.
