the xbmc live installation works exactly like an appliance-like settop-box would. switch it on, boot into XBMC directly. the guide is kinda redundant, for the zbox you have to use newest dharma beta anyways due to hardware support and not ye good ol' camelot 9.11
download the live CD, boot it, and see if that's what you want.

Thx for your comment,
So it's better to install it that way instead of installing on top of windows?

It's not a question of better, but what you prefer.
If you just and only want to run xbmc the xbmc-live cd is much faster since you don't have all that unneeded win-stuff running in the background.
The pro of Win + XBMC is that you are able to run other applications then xbmc too.
