For example, it says in the thread that you have thirty points to spend on your base attributes - that, I can understand. But how do you choose skills and feats for your character? Are there a set amount, or do they come with your race/class (or both)? The same with equipment - do I get to choose a few items to start with, or do I get nothing?

Hey Errandir, welcome aboard
As far for the boards i recommend you to join a game and just start playing. Best way to learn D&D.
Now. the tricky part is finding a game that runs the system you want to play, @ Enworld Game Masters normaly makes a post in this section of "talking the talk" with a titles that says the status of the game (recruiting, closed, etc) the system used (3.5, 4th ed, Call of Cutlhu, star wars, modern d20, and so many more...) and finaly the name of the game. - As in this
post here.
Another place to find the recruiting games is at the thread
New GMs, players, read the first post in this thread! where the GM updates his post when game is done recruiting.
As for you question. You will be given a source from the GM from where you will be able to make a character with skills and feats. For example with the D&D 3.5 system you will have to look up the Palyers handbook book 3.5 edition and follow de guidlines there to make a complete character. If it was Call of Cuthulhu d20 yu would need to read up on character creation in the book called "Call of Cthulhu - Roleplaying game" and so on. Every system has its own book that contains the creation guidelines for character for that specific system.
Hope this helps.
