What is the correct method for installing modules on old Python 1.5.2?

[Noah]

I have a module that I currently install using the distutils module, but
I also need to document how to install the module on old Python 1.5.2.
I used to know how to do this, but now I've forgotten and I can't seem to
find any documentation on the process anymore. I know that I have to copy
my module to site-packages, but I think I also need to add a line to a
text file in the python home directory. Can someone list the steps for me?

Yours,
Noah
