Include documentation to address "Unknown Column" error #13

There are a number of blog posts online that document how to fix the following error:

Unknown column 'zinnia_entry.content_placeholder_id' in 'field list'

None of these worked for me. Instead I did the following on a vanilla db which is probably worthwhile mentioning in the install docs.

python manage.py syncdb --all
python manage.py migrate --fake

Using the 'reset zinnia' approach never yielded success for me with recent versions.

Credit goes to IRC user 'bikeshedder' for reminding me of this workflow.
