	Cpanel installation procedure

Solution Before You Begin

cPanel and WHM can only be installed on a blank server with a fresh operating system install. No data should be on the server that you wish to keep. This includes, but is not limited to, web pages, configuration files, user accounts and scripts. The installer will make many changes to your system including the downloading and configuring of needed packages for you. Because of the considerable amount of changes that cPanel will make to the system, the suggested method of uninstalling the cPanel and WHM software is to reformat the server.

A fresh install with minimal installation options is recommended. Development tool libraries (gcc, C, etc) and wget are required.

cPanel and WHM will install Apache, MySQL, exim, PHP, etc. You will not need to install any of these services beforehand.
You should ensure your package management (or ports) system is properly configured (yum, apt-get, up2date, ports).
You will need to make sure that /etc/resolv.conf contains valid name-servers that allow you to resolve domains properly.

Minimum System Requirements
P266
256 Meg of ram
20 GB of space (Partition sizes required to host multiple account. Less than 500MB is needed for new files)

Here's the important part of this guide :

To Install cPanel and WHM
Make sure you are logged in as root and perform the following commands:

# cd /home
# wget http://layer1.cpanel.net/latest
# sh latest

The installer has now started, and can take between 30 and 60 minutes depending on your machine. If you are asked any questions press the Enter key or q if there is no default. After the installation has completed, you will need to setup WebHost Manager - refer to Logging on for the First Time for more information.

NOTE: You must be on a stable Internet connection to install cPanel. If your shell session disconnects during the installation of cPanel, the installation will be aborted. You can restart the installation by using sh latest again however, we recommend reformatting your machine and starting over, ensuring there are no problems with the installation.
