...on linux for morons
Step 1: Install a 32-bit distribution (I have chosen Debian 5.0 -minimal)
Step 2: Get a SSH tool (my suggestion Putty)
Step 3: connect to your server with Putty
Step 4: log into your root account
Step 5: update your apt by entering apt-get update
Step 6: search for usefull/needed programs (e.g. apt-cache search unzip/screen/libstdc)
Step 7: install them (apt-get install unzip // apt-get install screen // apt-get install libstdc++5 )
Step 8: create a new user: adduser cs2d
Step 9: logout and login into your cs2d account
Step 10: create a cs2d directory e.g. mkdir cs2d
Step 11: go to your cs2d directory // cd cs2d
Step 12: get the cs2d client: wget http://www.cs2d.me/downloads/cs2d_0115_win.zip
Step 13: unzip it // unzip cs2d_0115_win.zip
Step 14: get the dedicated server tool // wget http://www.cs2d.me/downloads/cs2d_dedicated_linux.zip
Step 15: Unzip it // unzip cs2d_dedicated_linux.zip
Step 16: change the chmod to 777 // chmod 777 ./cs2d_dedicated
Step 17: modify your cfg // cd sys // nano server.cfg - set the values save it by pressing ctrl + O exit by pressing ctrl + x modify your serverinfo.txt the same way (nano should be installed on your server, otherwise you have to install it with apt-get install)
Step 18: go back to your cs2d main directory // cd /home/cs2d/cs2d
Step 19: Run your cs2d server // screen ./cs2d_dedicated
Step 20: detach screen // press ctrl + a + d
After your OS is installed, all other steps should be done within 1 - 3 minutes

Should be put as a sticky. Useful tut? Sticky now. Couldn't have explained it better 
Small difference with SuSe:
Step 5: enter yast -> Software -> Software Management. Wait for it to update, then use ALT + S to search for libstdc++ and install them by navigating to them and use enter. Screen should already be installed on SuSe.
Btw: Step 19 would be better in a slightly different way, because like Reapers tutorial you can only start one server:
Step 19: Run screen with: screen -S ANYNAME (you can change the name as you like, e.g. cs2d_1)
run your server with ./cs2d_dedicated
Step 20 as above.
Like this, you can run more than one server by just using another NAME with the second server Is it different for Widows? Just asking. Lol windows.
