If you're doing a fresh installation, follow these instructions:
1. Unzip all the files in the 'freshinstall' directory to the root directory of your NETINV site.
2. Execute the freshinstall.sql file in the root directory of the zip file (if it exists) on the database you're using for NETINV.
3. Edit the config.php file in the root of your NETINV installation to reflect the configuration of your hosting environment.
4. You should be able to reach your installation now. The default username and password is 'netinv' and 'netinv' respectivly.

If you're just updating an existing version, follow these instructions:
1. THIS PROCESS WILL DESTROY ANY CHANGES YOU'VE MADE TO ALL FILES EXCEPT CONFIG.PHP AND INDEX.PHP. (It won't hurt your database though.) PROCEED WITH CAUTION.
2. Unzip all the files in the 'updateinstall' directory to the root directory of your NETINV site. This contains the same files as the freshinstall version, minus config.php and index.php
3. Execute the updateinstall.sql file in the root directory of the zip file (if it exists) on the database you're using for NETINV. This is the same as the freshinstall version, minus example objects and default user.
