Leo has asked me to do a tutorial on installing Wordpress for those who have not used it before. As I use Justhost I can only go by their install procedure which is very easy, I would imagine most cPanels are similar
1. This is the JH cPanel - think of it as a library of "things" , you select an item to open it and see what is inside :)

2.The simple scripts page opens - you may be able to use this with other sites without having Justhost, I do not know

3. Tell it you want to install -

4. Tell it where you want to install (if you have subdomains you can choose)

Q. Why do I install in the root rather than a file called Wordpress or something ?
A. So that the url reads www.mysite.com (http://www.mysite.com) and not www.mysite.com/wordpress (http://www.mysite.com/wordpress)
Hope this helps someone and gives them the confidence to get going. I think all the other information you need is in Leo's tutorial videos

This looks identical to the Bluehost site and process. Given the similarity in name I'm wondering if they are somehow related, perhaps different sites for different countries?
