You know, if all you are trying to do is install joomla, it's fairly straight foward. Basicly, create a database (you can do this in cpanel if you ahve it very easily), download the software, extract it somewhere on your server, change any relevant permisions (in your ftp client you would change permisions to read write execute temporarily if it says so in the joomla readme), then point your browser at the install program and your done.
By the way though....You may want to check out Drupal before using Joomla...Drupal is pretty nice and probally a whole lot more reliable than joomla.
