Problem: installation instructions #114

When using the installation instructions for using the automation tools with a docker install I ran into a few problems. I think these are more general problems of the installation instructions and I think it might be a good idea to update the instructions. Before doing that I would like to know if you agree.

Proposed changes:

  1. Add sudo to the commands for creating the automation directories. All parent directories are owned by root, not the user.
  2. Add instructions for creating the archivematica group and user. In my case they didn't exist - but this might be because of the docker installation.
  3. Add instrcutions for changing ownership of the new directories from root to the user.

If you think that this is a good idea I'll go ahead and create a PR for changing this.

Hi @jorikvankemenade thanks for logging this! I've moved the issue over to our primary issues repo to track it better. Will comment there.
