New Instance on Existing Cluster

Greetings,
I've inherited a cluster configuration and I'm new to administration of
clusters.
2 node 64 bit SQL running on 64 bit Windows 2003 Enterprise Edition.
I'd like to install a new instance to the cluster but do not know the
method. My searches have turned up only installing from scratch with custom
Instance name.
Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

You pretty much can find all the info you need in SQL Server 2005 Books
Online under
ms-help://MS.SQLCC.v9/MS.SQLSVR.v9.en/instsql9/html/d92134fe-8b36-496e-bc20-bda96973f3ac.htm
Basically, you just need to run SQL Server Setup after you have placed one
or more disk resources in a new resource group. But you do need to do some
preparation work with IP addresses, network names, AD group(s) and
privileges, etc.
