Tried getting owncloud to work.
After some trail and error found the problem.

When you install owncloud it makes a directory with all the files under: htdocs.

But when you change the path to /htdocs/owncloud it does change the directory 
to owncloud. but it makes a new directory :htdocs under /htdocs/owncloud.

I only get it working changing the name of owncloud dir to htdocs.

I think this is a bug and the htdocs dir only needs to be created during 
packages install and not after every change of the server root.

Didn't the error message display a very visible warning saying that you have to 
configure lighttpd (using its web page under services->network) before 
installing ownCloud?

This is because owncloud is extracted as a subdirectory of 
<server-root>/htdocs, and <server-root> is read from lighttpd configuration 
file.
<server-root> must be on a filesystem, such as /mnt/sda2, not just /mnt (or you 
will loose all your data upon reboot)

On my tests, when configuring lighttpd, I set "Server root: /mnt/md0/WebData", 
then continued to install owncloud, which performed fine:

~ # ls -l /mnt/md0/WebData/htdocs/
total 16
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root            41 Apr 15 18:21 hello.html
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root            20 Apr 15 18:21 hello.php
drwxr-xr-x   13 lighttpd network       4096 Apr 15 18:25 owncloud
drwxr-xr-x    3 lighttpd network       4096 Apr 15 18:28 webdav

Do you think that this is not clear?
How could the instructions/installation be improved?

I had to configure lightttpd first and  disable webdav. Afeter that all worked 
fine.
