Share Point Server 2010 installation process is quite messy and taking to much time for installation. Here is the full guidance for "How to install the Share Point Server 2010". Before start the installation keep in mind the below two notes because these steps will change at RTM.
1) Install is using admin account (several of us just couldn't get ALL the features to work with separate service account in Beta)
2) We don't need loopback fix as all the sites are using specific ports instead of host headers.
