do you know some good tutorial for hmc install?

I install the HMC first, and configure it, this way, when you connect your managed system to the network, the HMC will search and connect to the managed system providing its in a 'private' network (for other set ups, read the redbook I provided below). From here on, you can then start partitioning your LPARS. If you are going to have VIO LPARS, create them first.
There is much more to just installing a HMC, and VIOS and LPARS. You definitely need more understanding about the configuration, virutalisation, set up etc.
You could read more about installing, configuring and managing your HMC with this redbook.
