+You might wish to move/rename `config/local.ini.php` to another name and empty (called 'dropping') the database tables, so that you can start fresh.
+
+### Option B: Run the automatic install script
+
+Open the file htconfig.php in the main Friendica directory with a text editor.
+Remove the `die('...');` line and edit the lines to suit your installation (MySQL, language, theme etc.).
+Then save the file (do not rename it).
+
+Navigate to the main Friendica directory and execute the following command:
+
+ bin/console autoinstall
+
+Or if you wish to include all optional checks, execute this statement instead:
+
+ bin/console autoinstall -a
+
+At this point visit your website again, and register your personal account.
+
+*If* the automatic installation fails for any reason, check the following:
+
+* Does "config/local.ini.php" already exist? If yes, the automatic installation won't start
+* Are the settings inside "htconfig.php" correct? If not, edit the file again.
+* Is the empty MySQL-database created? If not, create it.
+
+For more information during the installation, you can use this command line option
+
+ bin/console autoinstall -v
