Looks good so far.
Can you include the URLs of recommended JVMs for Linux in a "resources"
section at the end?
Should people always set transient to yes if they're playing with
their configuration?
One place you say "same IP address" when it's clear from context it
should be "same port"
Is the script you mention a general purpose Freenet init script with
start, stop, restart, etc.?
Maybe there should be some mention of different levels of verbosity in
logging and what info each one gives you.
If you have two partitions with free space, should you just run two
nodes on the host, or is there a way to split a node's data store into
two directories?
"intermediate" admin question, definitely ok to _not_ cover in this
article: Can you run Freenet behind rinetd? (I think not; but maybe
there's a way that a node can listen on, say 10.1.0.2 port 31337 and
tell everybody that it's on 198.144.202.250 port 443 which is of course
really running rinetd -- make it possible for IP masquerading weenies to
put publicly available nodes on their 10 networks, and for people to
put Freenet traffic on 443 without running Freenet as root)
Mr. Bad has a Debian init script in his deb package; maybe this article
should include the init and logrotate.d stuff for Red Hat+clones and
just include a URL for Mr. Bad's package. (Maybe they'll let him
into the super-elite Debian Maintainer's Club some day...)

Maybe a little more setup information on fproxy, but this should be an
article for node admins, not content creators or regular users. (We have
a protozilla article in the pipe too.)
