Aha.
The common rule of thumb when installing most games within DOSBox is that you need a CD-ROM drive to install from (if the game it's on CD, it needs to be installed first) and a hard disk to store data (where you install to). So, in order to do this, we would type at the DOSBox Z:\> prompt:
mount c c:\oldgames (this is our hard-disk. Obviously folder OLDGAMES must exist on C:)
mount d f:\ -t cdrom -ioctl
This line mounts a suitable CD-ROM drive. Just because more than one drive was uncommon in the ms-dos days, we are calling it D: - because the hard disk is C:
The second letter (F:) is THE REAL LETTER of the physical drive you are using (change it for your real CD/DVD drive letter if appropiate).
After that, we go to the cd
Z:\>d:
D:\>
And type whatever is needed for invoking installation procedure (install, setup, etc)
E.G.
D:\>install.exe
After installation is complete, we may need to keep the disc in the drive, but we play from C: (where we installed to)
D:\>c:
C:\>cd mygame {assuming your game was installed to a folder with this name}
C:\MYGAME\>start.bat
That's it. I still advise you to read the guides on the forum.
Good luck!
