Those docs are quite outdated (honestly I had forgotten they existed). Also, they seem to start out with instructions on how to do a GeoNode release.
Unfortunately, installation is pretty system dependent so far (since we don't package WSGI or Servlet containers with the release bundles, you have to go find an appropriate one for your system.) I have been working on improving the documentation situation; the docs in http://github.com/dwins/geonode/blob/issue_822_deployment_docs/docs/source/deploy/ are much closer to correct (I've tested the Ubuntu doc twice on fresh hardware this past week; the CentOS one is based on an older revision and I have fixed everything that I know about, but it still needs testing.) I assume you'll be installing on a mac? That's currently undocumented. I expect the biggest differences from the steps in the Ubuntu docs will be getting mod_wsgi and a compiler + libraries ready for installing the native Python modules.
