Installing Movable Type

Hello everyone!! I was hoping someone could sorta break down how to install Movabletype to my dreamhost site. I've installed it twice or so on another server, but it had a CGI bin and I knew where to put everything but now with dreamhost I'm a bit lost. I used SQL to install it also if that helps. I'm almost done moving my 1.7 GB fan site over to dreamhost and this one of the last things I need to do, naturally the hardest.

Thanks!

Should find plenty of help in the wiki-kbase:

Depending on the situation, you could consider changing to WordPress, which has a one-click install.

Cheers,

Thanks for your help. I should have posted back that I found this http://www.wombatnation.com/misc/installMTDreamHost.html#shell earlier and have installed movabletype. I'm working on some issues its having tho. :(

I can't change to WordPress because my fan site has 300+ posts and tons and tons of comments. Plus I finally learned how to sorta make my own workable template.

Thanks BobS.
