$>mkdir -p /opt/luatex/standalone-new
$>cd /opt/luatex/standalone-new
$>wget http://minimals.contextgarden.net/setup/first-setup.sh
$>bash /first-setup.sh --modules=simplefonts
$>## wait a little
$>cd tex
$>source setuptex
$>## ok we shoudl have context mkiv now
$>context --version
$>cd texmf-project
$>mkdir fonts && cd fonts
$>wget http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/freefont/freefont-src-20120503.zip
$>unzip freefont-src-20120503.zip
$>cd freefont-20120503
$>mv *.ttf ../
$>cd ..
$>mtxrun --script font --reload
$>## let's see if they are installed
$>mtxrun --script fonts --list --all|grep free
$>cd ..
