How do I install MaxDB using the graphical installer?

From Version 7.5.00.19 on, the graphical Installation Manager is the easiest way to install MaxDB. It has one major advantage for beginners over the command line variants: it can be used to install the software and an instance. The instance that is created is a good starting point for configuration tweaking. Download the most recent, stable version of MaxDB from the http://www.mysql.com/products/database/maxdb/ download area (see also Which database version shall I use?) and unpack it to a local directory. In order to run SDBSETUP you need root permissions (UNIX, Linux) or administrator privileges (Windows). MaxDB will create a user account (Unix), install services and modify the registry during the installation process, see What changes to the operating system have been made during the installation? for more details. Follow the instructions given on the screen.
