It can pretty much be used as-is, _except_.... you'll find one or more entries in your request handlers like: <str name="df">_text_</str>
Change "_text_" to something in your schema, that's the default search field if you don't field-qualify your search terms. Note that if you take out, for instance, all of your non-english fieldTypes, you can also remove most of the stuff under the /lang folder. I essentially always test this out on a local, stand-alone instance until I can index a few documents and query them, it's faster than always having to remember to move them to ZooKeeper....
