1. find the folder of the subdomain
2. download MyBB http://www.mybboard.net/downloads
3. upload unzip contents and upload to folder of subdomain
4. follow installer guide: http://wiki.mybboard.net/index.php/Installer

Go to your cpanel, click on "Softaculous", select "MyBB" and install. Simple. It will give you the option to change what directory it goes in on your website. This is a much quicker way, takes about 10 seconds to install it.

if you have not gone through Awesomexr's approach and in response to your question

there should be no part where you need to go into PHPMyAdmin. everything is done for you with the installer. just follow the installer guide. http://wiki.mybboard.net/index.php/Installer

but I do suggest Awesomexr's approach because its easier, faster, and less hassle. Just you won't learn quite as much as when you do it by yourself. But if you just want to get MyBB up and running, go for Awesomexr's approach.

Softaculous is located in your cPanel towards the bottom under Software/Services.
