It's a lengthy process, but not too complex, and there are many good tutorials on the web. I don't know why your internet research did not work. Anyway i'll point you to a link that I followed for my Lab and worked perfectly, if followed step by step.

Try using the .iso for a standalone desktop installation to check if it really works. Otherwise you can get a CD from the next PLUG meeting.
