Suggestion:

1.) pre-requisite for bootstrapping is setting up the user "gm-dbowner" 
or "gnumed" as super user manually. Simple task

2.) GUI wizard collecting neccessary configuration information 
(presenting reasonable defaults) creating and optionally running a 
bootstrap script (basically the wizard would just create the config file 
and then run Karsten's bootstrap script with appropriate parameters).

This might make it a bit easier for the newbies.
