first, you might want to improve your chances of getting [useful]
answers by improving your questions:

Now, the wmaker.inst file probably carries linux-specific instructions.
You can make it a lot easier for yourself by using the loads of packages
that occupy most of the CD set you bought:
<put CD 1/3/4 into the cdrom>
su -m
/stand/sysinstall configPackages
<choose to install from the CD>
<navigate to the x11-wm category>
