QUICK INSTALL

=============



For the impatient, here is a basic outline of the 

installation process, which normally takes me only 

a few minutes:



1) Move the Moodle files into your web directory. 



2) Create a single database for Moodle to store all

   it's tables in (or choose an existing database).



3) Visit your Moodle site with a browser, you should 

   be taken to the install.php script, which will lead

   you through creating a config.php file and then 

   setting up Moodle, creating an admin account etc.



4) Set up a cron task to call the file admin/cron.php

   every five minutes or so.





For more information, see the INSTALL DOCUMENTATION:



   http://docs.moodle.org/en/Installing_Moodle 



A local copy can also be found in 



   lang/en_utf8/help/install.html   (or your language)





Good luck and have fun!
