That must be of great fun to install Smalltalk on a bare-metal machine, isn't it?
What are the steps to do that? Any tutorials?

Indeed. However, hardware used to be a lot simpler than it is are nowadays. If a modern laptop didn't have all kinds of hardware, many of which requires proprietary drivers, this would still be feasible. That being said ...

... there is a project that does target bare PC hardware, called "Squeak No Operating System". People have worked on it on and off, you should google for "SqueakNOS".
