I would like to add that it kept crashing for me when I tried running it on the last step.
Looked at the couchpotato log and saw this ( nano /root/.couchpotato/logs/CouchPotato.log )
10-19 14:45:47 INFO ^[[0m[potato.core._base.updater] === VERSION source:(RuudBurger:CouchPotatoServer master) 1fb031ff (2014-10-12 15:41:56), using SourceUpdater ===^[$

So I decided to change the port it listens on from 5050 to 6060 by doing the following
nano /root/.couchpotato/settings.conf
change port = 5050 to port = 6060
hit CTRL+X → Y → Enter
then try starting it again with
/etc/init.d/couchpotato start
give it a minute or two and point your browser to either
or
http://[IP of NAS]:6060
hope this helps someone
