Install.php Step 1 Question Before I Continue

   Hi,
   I'm in the process of installing bbPress. I've uploaded it to my server and now I'm at the install.php step 1.

   So, here's my question: Should the info on the first page match the info I placed in the config.php file? Should User Name be the same? Forum name be the same? And, where it says location does that mean http://www.my_really_cool_site.com/forums?

   This may sound like a weird question, but I don't want to chance screwing this up.
   Thanks

   OK, maybe I should be a bit more clear.
   For the install "Step 1" where it says
   "Before we begin we need a little bit of information about your site's first administrator account, and your site's first forum,"
   What goes in these boxes?

   user name*
   website
   location
   interests
   forum name*
   description

   Do the * have to be the same as in the config file or can I change them? Also, is the description a sub-title or is it something that will be listed in search engines?

   Thanks again

   These are for your forum account - what you will use on the forum to post be a member etc

   I wouldnt recomend using what you put in your config file.

   Thank you for responding.
   I figured that, but I wanted to make sure before continuing.
   Thanks again.
