[Photon] Newbie Installation Issue

[Peter]

Hi Richard,

We should make it more clear. After you download the data a new folder
photon_data is created and one directory higher you execute java -jar
photon-*.jar

Does this help?

> I have never used Elasticsearch before - how does photon /
elasticsearch know where to find the data?

Default searches at 'photon_data' or you specify -data-dir

Regards
Peter
