How to install BNote?

   750 config/ with the group being the apache runtime user-group
   755 data/ with the group being the apache runtime user-group

   775 data/gallery with the group being the apache runtime user-group
   664 data/gallery/* all files in this folder; with the group being the apache runtime user-group
4. Access your newly created BNote instance. An installation script should come up where you can setup the system.
5. Remove install.php from the document root of your BNote instance.

How to update an existing BNote instance?

1. Copy all files (including hidden ones like .htaccess files) from this folder, except:
   • all files from the config/ folder including the folder itself
   • readme.txt
   • release_notes.txt
2. Open the config/config.xml file in the subdirectory of this folder in an editor of your choice.
   Compare the config.xml file with the config.xml file of your current instance and add the missing tags.
3. Execute update_db.php to update your database schema.
