Firstly, the latest version is 0.9.0.11. To install, simply upload the complete directory structure to yourdomain.com, then just go to yourdomain.com/b2evolution for instructions.

any host that has cpanel *should* have b2evo as one of the blogging packages available.

One would hope but that is not the case in some cases from recent experience.

The other thing is Cpanel has many themes and Fantastico scripts only show in a few of the themes. If you don't have it then ask.

The other issue is they don't necessarily have the lattest version.

You need to remember that after the initial install that you need to do all upgrades yourself.

I resell hosting and I could not get it in Cpanel. I had to pay www.ace-host.net to get it! I illistrated the problem with the hosting company I resell for and after I moved a few domains they got the message ;-)
