Cliff's advice is spot on. I've done this many times over the past 15 years and although I know what I need to plan for I usually have a surprise or two before I'm done. I practiced this in a "lab environment" until my confidence built enpough to try it for real.
Active Directory is the *core* of most networks. Once installed, some changes are painful to do, so "small" oversights and mistakes are amplified. It takes planning and familiarity with the system, and no simple one-paragraph answer can cover that. This is one of those times that it is best to tell someone you need assistance. Whether that is a supervisor (we were all junior techs at one time) or a consultant (we all had to learn somehow), the risk of doing things wrong is just too great.
