1. Install java. 2. Install the Freenet jar files (freenet.jar and freenet-ext.jar). 3. Get seed node references from somewhere and put them in seednodes.ref. 4. Set CLASSPATH to include both of the jar files. 5. Run "java freenet.node.Main --config" and answer the questions. This creates freenet.conf in the current directory. 6. Edit freenet.conf by hand to fill in all the stuff that the --config skipped over. 7. Run "nohup java freenet.node.Main &" to start the Freenet node. 8. Wait for it to finish creating the data store, etc. 9. Point your browser at <http://localhost:8888/> (gateway) and/or <http://localhost:8889/> (administrative reports). You can use "java freenet.node.Main --help" to get some other options, most of which will not be useful for the beginner. Except possibly this one: -x|--export <file>|- exports a signed NodeReference so that you can share your node reference with others, if you wish. -- Greg Wooledge | "Truth belongs to everybody."
