Bug Description

In docs/installation/server_installation.txt all the commands the admin needs to run are shown like this:

As the *user* Linux account, issue the following command in the Evergreen
source directory to generate the configure script and Makefiles:

[source, bash]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
autoreconf -i
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EXCEPT right after that:

After running `make install`, developers also need to install the Dojo Toolkit

That particular "make install" is not, so it's easy to overlook.

EG & OSRF versions: newest from git.

Close, but I think the Dojo section needs to be moved after the instruction to change ownership of /openils. Otherwise, somebody following the instructions literally would be attempting to copy files as the opensrf user to a directory that's still owned by root.

I moved the particular instructions to install Dojo after the chown command, as gmc suggested.

Looks good. I changed the heading type to match the rest of the doc, and I added the note section from the preamble, since it applies to these instructions too. Pushed to master. Thanks Elliot!

Also picked this into 2.5 and 2.4. It will start showing up after the docs rebuild tonight.
