After a while, you will be asked to insert the mfsroot.flp. If that finishes too, you will be asked to configure the kernel (is that what you mean?). Go into visual configuration and switch off anything that causes conflicts and which you don't need (basically, drivers for hardware you don't have). After that, you'll go into the visual installation program and you're off.
