When looking over DreamHost and their compatibility with zenPhoto I found that they have an “Easy One Click” install available. This means two things:

1. It extremely simple to go from nothing to installed in no time flat.
2. DreamHost and zenPhoto are extremely compatible.

In fact I put together a quick video of the installation process. Enjoy!
