The Readme File for G2 has as #2 installing

"Begin Installing - Open up your web browser and browse to the install directory. Gallery 2 will walk you through the process of validating that your system is properly configured and will set everything up for you. "

Well I have ftp'd the programme to my server, and found the "Install directory"

but as to walking me through it... it forgot to take my hand, and I simply cannot see where I am supposed to start.

And at last, after struggling for over an hour to find something to help me, and eventually succumbing to the temptation to write asking for help, here at last I find a link to the FAQ.
