Here's a nice way to reduce Dolphin 7 installation to 5 minutes only. If you are lucky to have shell access to your hosting server then all you have to do is run the following scripts and all Permissions Changes will take place in a batch process (virtually 1 minute for all).
1) For the Setup of installation run the following 2 commands:
chmod 777 ./backup ./cache ./cache_public ./inc ./langs ./media/app ./media/images ./media/images/banners ./media/images/blog ./media/images/classifieds ./media/images/membership ./media/images/profile ./media/images/profile_bg ./media/images/promo ./media/images/promo/original ./tmp ./plugins/htmlpurifier/HTMLPurifier/DefinitionCache/Serializer ./plugins/htmlpurifier/HTMLPurifier/DefinitionCache/Serializer/CSS ./plugins/htmlpurifier/HTMLPurifier/DefinitionCache/Serializer/HTML ./plugins/htmlpurifier/HTMLPurifier/DefinitionCache/Serializer/Test ./plugins/htmlpurifier/HTMLPurifier/DefinitionCache/Serializer/URI ./flash/modules/global/app/ffmpeg.exe
chmod 666 ./flash/modules/global/data/integration.dat ./flash/modules/board/xml/config.xml ./flash/modules/board/xml/langs.xml ./flash/modules/board/xml/main.xml ./flash/modules/board/xml/skins.xml ./flash/modules/chat/xml/config.xml ./flash/modules/chat/xml/langs.xml ./flash/modules/chat/xml/main.xml ./flash/modules/chat/xml/skins.xml ./flash/modules/desktop/xml/config.xml ./flash/modules/desktop/xml/langs.xml ./flash/modules/desktop/xml/main.xml ./flash/modules/desktop/xml/skins.xml ./flash/modules/global/xml/config.xml ./flash/modules/global/xml/main.xml ./flash/modules/im/xml/config.xml ./flash/modules/im/xml/langs.xml ./flash/modules/im/xml/main.xml ./flash/modules/im/xml/skins.xml ./flash/modules/mp3/xml/config.xml ./flash/modules/mp3/xml/langs.xml ./flash/modules/mp3/xml/main.xml ./flash/modules/mp3/xml/skins.xml ./flash/modules/photo/xml/config.xml ./flash/modules/photo/xml/langs.xml ./flash/modules/photo/xml/main.xml ./flash/modules/photo/xml/skins.xml ./flash/modules/video/xml/config.xml ./flash/modules/video/xml/langs.xml ./flash/modules/video/xml/main.xml ./flash/modules/video/xml/skins.xml ./flash/modules/video_comments/xml/config.xml ./flash/modules/video_comments/xml/langs.xml ./flash/modules/video_comments/xml/main.xml ./flash/modules/video_comments/xml/skins.xml ./flash/modules/board/files ./flash/modules/chat/files ./flash/modules/photo/files ./flash/modules/im/files ./flash/modules/mp3/files ./flash/modules/video/files ./flash/modules/video_comments/files ./inc/prof.inc.php
2) After installation (permission reversal):
chmod 755 ./inc
ATTENTION! For some reason if i change the "inc" directory's permissions to 755 i don see them operating correct (according to the permission checker Boonex has) in AdminPanel->Tools->Permissions, so you it with care and responsibility!
If you need a hosting plan with shell access contact me and we'll see what we can do!
It will save much time. I have VPS Hosting WHM Panel but never run these type of script from there, can you please tell me in detail from where i can use shell access n run your both scripts.

Putty is also good and now i can change permissions in just 2secs, it was too boring earlier.
Thanks a Ton.
The instructions i gave do not work
(not entirely) for D7b8! Please stay tuned for updates!
I also want to write a small "How-To" on how to do all these, so if you guys want it just say so in here.
