I put the SD card in the Pi and plugged it in. I was greeted by the "NOOBS 1.3.5" screen. Your version may differ slightly. I checked the RaspBMC box and pressed the letter I to install and clicked on "Yes" to confirm.
It opened a box saying that the OS had been installed correctly and I clicked on OK.
Make sure your Pi is connected to the Internet before you click the OK.
The Pi rebooted and asked me to wait while it setup RaspBMC.
After a short time it rebooted and started going through its update process. Your Pi will go through many screen changes and reboot several times during this phase. I suggest watching a TV show while you wait... Yes, it's going to be awhile.
Once this is done you'll be greeted by a "First run help" screen. Wait about 30 seconds and you'll get a pop up asking what language you would like to choose. I chose English/English.
If your TV has a CEC compatible remote, RaspBMC should automatically recognize it and display a box in the lower right saying it found a compatible device. This will allow you to use you TV remote to do the most basic control of your Pi while running RaspBMC.
