 Database Setup
 --------------
-To use a MySQL database, you should create a table with the following
-SQL-statement:
+You should use the script configurator.php to create the database tables
+that you need. Two tables are configured, one that holds METARs, and one
+that holds a database of station names.
 
-CREATE TABLE metars (
-  metar VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
-  timestamp TIMESTAMP(14),
-  station VARCHAR(4) NOT NULL,
-  PRIMARY KEY (station),
-  UNIQUE station (station)
-);
-
-If you're using a PostgreSQL database, you should use this statement
-instead:
-
-CREATE TABLE metars (
-  metar VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
-  timestamp TIMESTAMP,
-  station VARCHAR(4) PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL
-);
+The configurator currently asks you what you'd like to call a table of
+countries - this table is not created. Don't panic.
