"This isn't hard, but seams to vex the newbies so here

"1. Do the physical install. If you don't know how to do this
then I suggest buying a Mac, or perhaps even an etch-e-sketch."
"2. Boot the machine"
"3. Now, the hard part. The drive will be recognized by the OS
as /dev/XdY, where X is either "h" (if the drive is IDE) or "s" (if
the drive is SCSI), and Y is the letter of the alphabet that
corresponds with the drive number. (Obviously not "a", if you
already had a previous drive installed.)"
