+1) Installation
+===============
+The installation of Blogthon assumes that your httpd supports CGI and Python
+is installed. If all this is given, you can download Blogthon in a directory
+of your choice. After that you have to symlink 2 files into your www directory:
 
+ * blogthon.cgi
+ * styles
+
+Then create 3 directories and 1 empty file:
+
+ * entries/
+ * static/
+ * plugins/
+ * linklist
+
+Now copy the example configuration into your www directory, or to
+../blogthonrc or ../.blogthonrc.
+
+If all this is done, you can continue with setting up your httpd.
+
+
+1.1) Apache
+===========
+To enable CGI you just have to run 'a2enmod cgi' as root. Now put something
+like this in /etc/apache2/sites-available/default:
+
+<Directory /this/is/where/your/www/root/is/>
+    Options +ExecCGI
+    AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
+    DirectoryIndex blogthon.cgi
+</Directory>
+
+To finish the installation, reload Apache with
+'/etc/init.d/apache2 force-reload' as root.
