Here's the link to Cyanogenmod Wiki for Motorola Defy, bro:
Motorola Defy - CyanogenMod Wiki

You'll get the guide to installing custom ROMs on this link. Tutorial to rooting is also there. Do check it out.

And to install CM or MiUI, you need to download and install 2ndinit recovery from the Play Store. Guide to installing it here:
