Hi Jell,
It sounds like your server is setup to not allow the highest permission levels on files and/or folders. The error message "error: directory is writable by others: (/home/instan84/public_html/flex)" would indicate to me that you need to lower the permissions on that folder to make it no longer writable from groups other than the owner.
Probably the easiest way to change the permissions on the folder would be through your FTP package. You may need to consult the manual for your particular package to find out how that's done.

Internal Server Error solution

When I took away public write permission on flex directory and all 4 uploaded installation files, including install.php, the installation run smoothless.
When starting up FlexCMS the initial error message reappeared (the log file indicated index.php was the problem)
When I tool away public write permission here too there was no more problem.
