 For updating the the Omnibus installation please see the [update documentation](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/omnibus-gitlab/blob/master/doc/update.md). For manual installations there is an [upgrader script](doc/update/upgrader.md) and there are [upgrade guides](doc/update).
 
-## Run in production mode
-
-The Installation guide contains instructions on how to download an init script and run it automatically on boot. You can also start the init script manually:
-
-    sudo service gitlab start
-
-or by directly calling the script:
-
-     sudo /etc/init.d/gitlab start
-
-Please login with `root` / `5iveL!fe`
-
 ## Install a development environment
 
 We recommend setting up your development environment with [the GitLab Development Kit](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-development-kit).
-If you do not use the development kit you might need to copy the example development unicorn configuration file
+If you do not use the GitLab Development Development kit you need to install and setup all the dependencies yourself, this is a lot of work and error prone.
+One small thing you also have to do when installing it yourself is to copy the example development unicorn configuration file:
 
     cp config/unicorn.rb.example.development config/unicorn.rb
 
-## Run in development mode
-
-Start it with [Foreman](https://github.com/ddollar/foreman)
-
-    bundle exec foreman start -p 3000
-
-or start each component separately:
-
-    bundle exec rails s
-    bin/background_jobs start
-
-And surf to [localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000/) and login with `root` / `5iveL!fe`.
