   **Download the following:**

     - "Latest Zope":http://www.zope.org/Products version 2.5.1 or later recommended)

     - "Latest CMF":http://cmf.zope.org/download (you need at least version 1.3)

   **The installation procedure:**

     - Unpack the CMF directories (CMFCore, CMFDefault etc) into your Products 
       directory

     - Unpack the Plone directory (CMFPlone) into your Products directory (also 
       include the DCWorkflow and Formulator products)

     - Start Zope

     - From /manage interface there should be a 'Select Type to Add' that says, CMF 
       Site (or Plone Site if you installed Plone).  Click on that, fill in information 
       and voila!

     - This means that installation of CMF was successful. Go to the front page, and 
       have a look at your new CMF site :)

     - Now go back to your ZMI and add an External Method with this settings:

       function: install
