In reply to: How to change permalink on page to URL/wp-admin/options-reading.php
Visit that page in your admin panel.
It should look a bit like this: http://i50.tinypic.com/33jgys0.png
What you need to do, is in the “Front page displays…” section, change the radio box to “a static page”, and then from the dropdown for “front page”, select your “home” page.
Further information from the WP codex: http://codex.wordpress.org/Creating_a_Static_Front_Page
Good luck!

In reply to: Tryng to get WP working on my home server.What do you see when you visit http://borgserver/borgserver/ without the /wp-admin? If WordPress isn’t installed (which it doesn’t sound like it is yet), it should walk you through the installation process.
This either means that the username and password information in your wp-config.php file is incorrect or we can’t contact the database server at localhost. This could mean your host’s database server is down.
The wp-config.php file in question should be at http://borgserver/borgserver/wp-config.php. It doesn’t exist as standard, as it should be created prior to installation. The install process should be able to walk you through this.
The wp-config.php is what holds all the information to connect to your MySQL database (which is where all the content for your blog is held).
I would try that as a first port of call. Hope it helps!
