I just did it a few weeks ago and I wish I had taken better notes.

From memory; install Tomcat (I am using 5.0.28) and make sure it is

working. I do not remember any problems there. Use the
geoserver-1.4-war.zip (not geoserver-1.4-bin, and I would avoid 1.5 at
first as it has additional requirements)

un-zip and un-pack the war, then drag geoserver into web-apps directory.

Restart Tomcat, and try localhost:8080/geoserver

I seem to recall changing something in web.xml or server.xml, but it
was not entirely specific to geoserver.

I got it running without undue effort on OS X 10.4.8, if you have
problems please post specific details.

You can also simply install the Jboss application server, drop the war into the deploy directory (note in the console where jboss mounts the webapp) and then go to that URL.
