If you want to access the installation as a sub-domain (myboard.mysite.com) create the sub-domain first through cPanel and then install into the folder name you used to create the sub-domain. Otherwise you will have to create a redirect or access the board with mysite.com/myboard
Using the create a sub-domain in cPanel it will create the folder for you. Do not create the folder first.
Just an FYI.
Thanks OJB.
One account per domain. You can park other domains on top of that one domain but it has to enter your site at the same point as the original domain. Parking is not the same as additional domains. And policy is one account one domain.
You can create a subdomain bluray.moviemansguide.com but you may not point a separate domain to it.
From the Acceptable Use Policy
No, for separate content with another domain name you require a separate hosting account. You cannot post another domain name to any files or folders within your account.
You can get around this limitation by upgrading to a reseller account.

It would be hard to pick any package on a shared server that would accommodate 400 people trying to pull 40-45meg files. I would recommend a dedicated server for that.
