Strange, it's so easy i'm not sure what you might want explained. I'll give it a shot, but you might want to try asking a question.

For making a boot floppy: Start a "DOS box", do not run it directly from windows. Run it once. look at the options it prints out. You should see options that let you select a language and that let you install it to floppy. Insert a blank floppy in the drive, type the installer name with the options that tell it to write to floppy, In a few seconds you have a SBM floppy that you can use to boot a CD on a computer where the BIOS does no support that.

For installing it on the hard drive MBR: do the same steps as above, but use the command line option to install to the first hard drive.

In either case you reboot and run SBM from a floppy or hard drive MBR. A simple text menu is displayed. Select the first CD drive to boot the CD. Select the first hard drive partition to boot the OS installed there (don't select the hard drive itself if you instaled to hard drive, that just reloads SBM).

That's really all there is to it.
