I take it that by catalog you mean directory?

When I unpack the disks, do I allow them to create subdirectories from this
directory?

The only way that seems likely to work from reading the manuals that makes
any sort of sense is installing from floppy images, which I would rather not
do, but will do as a last resort, that is if I don't move to Linux first.

Go well, and God bless,
