[bf1942] linux dedicated server install guide

[grant stevens]

Screen does work.  However, if it is terminating then some other issue is at
hand.
Since there are nothing but debug messages being written to standard I/O,
when I use screen I run it like so

screen -dmS bf1942 ./bf1942_ded

This runs screen as a daemon and keeps you from having to detach the screen.
Remote restarts are possible in this manner with screen.


Hope that helps,
grant
