OK,

her is the way I did it months ago:
----
geoServer
                apt-get install sun-java6-jdk sun-java6-fonts 
                unzip geoserver-2.0.1-bin.zip -d geoserver
                apt-get install tomcat6 tomcat6-admin
                edit /etc/tomcat6/tomcat-users.xml and add propriate users
                some more helps here: 
http://grimmeister.wordpress.com/2008/07/28/revisiting-geoserver-on-ubuntu/
                add in: /etc/tomcat6/policy.d/04webapps.policy at the end:
                        permission java.security.AllPermission;
                edit: /usr/share/tomcat6/bin/setclasspath.sh and add near the 
first line:
                        
CATALINA_OPTS="-DGEOSERVER_DATA_DIR=/data/geoserver_data"
-----
Go to http://localhost:8080/ (resp. your servername) and deploy the 
geoserver-XXX.war

Worked for me

Hi Magnus.  What do you mean that page isn't informative?  :)

I unfortunately don't have an answer (not much of a Linux user) but if someone 
comes through with a viable installation checklist, I will gladly add it to the 
docs.

Thanks,
