Download the files from phpbb.com, install the desired directory, and then just go to that webpage. It's an easy installation; all you have to do how to do via phpMyAdmin is to create a database. (No tables or anything, just the database.)

If you are having issues with installation, post on the phpBB boards directly, probably get a faster response.

You can set phpBB up in a matter of minutes. (Literally, it takes ~4 minutes from when you start downloading to when you can login to the ACP.)
Just download it, go to the address where you downloaded it (like, http://www.lolmysite.com/forums), and then follow the instructions.
-OR- Use the documentation.
