I have recently installed Xoops and it was very easy to install manually if you like, or you can use the Scripts Library in your cPanel. There are templates for Xoops at www.7dana.com

As for Mambo, I haven't installed it yet, but it should be easy as well to install. You can get templates for it easily as well, check this thread:Free styles for your Mambo install

Mambo is also quite easy.
You do have to know a little bit of how to edit files etc. to get the configuration file set up right, and you have to know how to use an FTP program to change permissions on directories and files.

But thats the same for ANY CMS.
