Simple Machine Forums, install

So my number one admin for my never released forum wanted something other than phpbb3, he wanted smf. So I deleted the phpbb3 directory and made a new mysql db for smf, and through the smf dir on the server, I went to the dir to see if the install would work, sure enough it was complaining about not having language folder in a certain directory an that some ftp clients were to blame. I blame smart ftp by the way. So I placed the missing language directory where it was supposed to be, and then went back to the install.php and sure enough everything worked like a charm so much so and so quickly that I got scared, but the Forum seems to be working perfectly. If any of you can see otherwise let me know.
