Sorry, this is wrong you _must_ run the bootstrap script as user root!

The same applies for the startup script /kolab/etc/rc.d/rc.kolab. This script 
_must_ be executed as root. 

Both scripts need root permissions.

I think we should improve kolab and spit out errors when beeing executed by 
the wrong user.

I addition I improved the text when installing the kolab rpm.
