Sorry for the new-guy questions; what is a DP? Also, what do you mean by pack it in the order in which you want it to deploy? Thanks in advance!
Sorry meant DB or more commonly called a D-Bag, AKA deployment bag.
Packing all of the gear in the order in which you want it to deploy will help mitigate deployment issues. I once heard someone say that if it looks sloppy it will deploy sloppy. I pack my chutes taking my time folding, wrapping, z folding shock cords etc., it should look neat and tidy when its done correctly. The chute pack depends on the chute type, mine are all spherical in basic shape, both fruity chute elliptical and iris toroidal shape versions. When I use a DB I pack it the way Gene recommends, you literally stuff it in then neatly pack the shroud lines and pay attention to the bridle.
In your case you're not using a DB so if the chute is spherical then I would fold it vertically keeping the shroud lines neat and or gores aligned then Z fold it horizontally. If you double fold or triple z fold or however many times, that depends on your payload size and the chute. A shorter fat payload then you make your bundle the same way and do more folds. Once you have it folded the way you like you would then hold the chute in the position it will unfurl so lines down, bring the lines up to near the top then start wrapping evenly and neatly down to the bridle or attachment point. The bridle or attachment loop will not get wrapped. I usually pack mine in a Nomex even on my itty bitty rockets my kids fly by placing the chute in the middle folding one side over then the top down then rolling it the rest vertically. That package gets put into the payload lube last.
I then z fold my shock cord and neatly place it into the payload tube followed by the chute package.
At this stage when the chute is deployed it comes out wrapped in the Nomex gets into the air stream and helps to pull the harness, unless it was also pushed out via the ejection charge which is what you want. Bottom line is it deploys in the order that you want it to be in it's final positions, chute at the top, shroud lines, nomex, bridle or attachment loop and recovery harness and hopefully your unharmed rocket dangling below.
