Suggestion for installation instructions

[Volker Stolz]

Hi guys, I just walked a friend through a fresh FreeBSD 6.2 and GNOME  
installation.

May I suggest to add a note that after setting gnome_enable="YES" in  
rc.conf as per http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/docs/faq2.html#q1 you  
need to invoke the startup-script as root?
And rephrase "This will enable services such as GDM, HAL, D-BUS, and  
Avahi" to "...on subsequent system startups" (sounds awful, but will  
do and is precise). This is not obvious to people new to BSD.

I strongly suggest to move the gnome_enable bit in front of the  
section on "Make GNOME 2.18 start when X starts."
