     <title>Server setup</title>
     <para>This section describes how to set up a server instance of  DHIS 2 on Ubuntu 10.10 64 bit with PostgreSQL as database system and Tomcat as Servlet container. The term <emphasis role="italic">invoke</emphasis> refers to executing a given command in a terminal. You can find the terminal in <emphasis role="italic">Applications</emphasis> - <emphasis role="italic">Accessories</emphasis> - <emphasis role="italic">Terminal</emphasis>.</para>
-    <para>For a national server the recommended configuration is a multicore 2 Ghz processor or higher and 12 Gb RAM or higher. Note that a 64 bit operating system is required for utilizing more than 4 Gb of RAM, the Ubuntu 10.10 64 bit edition is thus recommended. For this guide we assume that 4 Gb RAM is allocated for PostgreSQL and 7 GB RAM is allocated for Tomcat. If you are running a different configuration please adjust the suggested values accordingly.</para>

+    <para>The DHIS 2 Live package is extremely convenient to install and run. It is intended for demonstrations, for users who want to explore the system and for small, offline installations typically for districts or facilities. It only requires a Java Runtime Environment and runs on all browsers except Internet Explorer 7 and lower.</para>
+    <para>To install start by downloading DHIS 2 Live from <emphasis role="italic">http://dhis2.org</emphasis> and extract the archive to any location. On Windows click the executable archive. On Linux invoke the startup.sh scipt. After the startup process is done your default web browser will automtically be pointed to  <emphasis role="italic">http://localhost:8082</emphasis> where the application is accessible. A system tray menu is accessible on most operating systems where you can start and stop the server and start new browser sesssions. Please note that if you have the server running there is no need to start it again, simply open the application from the tray  menu.</para>
+    <para>DHIS 2 Live is running on an embedded Jetty servlet container and an embedded H2 database. However it can easily be configured to run on other database systems such as PostgresSQL. Please read the section above about server installations for an explanation of the database configuration. The <emphasis role="italic">hibernate.properties</emphasis> configuration file is located in the <emphasis role="italic">conf</emphasis> folder. Remember to restart the Live package for your changes to take effect. The server port is 8082 by default. This can be changed by modifying the value in the<emphasis role="italic"> jetty.port</emphasis> configuration file located in the <emphasis role="italic">conf</emphasis> directory.</para>
