I'm presuming that you already installed the binaries.

1) Find one of the default configuration files, and name that
syslog-ng.conf; place it in whatever directory you defined=20
your etc dir to be.

2) Edit the files which start your current syslogd daemon at boot.
Replace instances of your current daemon with syslog-ng.

3) Kill the pid of your current daemon; start syslog-ng.

4) Tweak your configuration as needed.

I didn't go into detail about much of the above because all of it has
been covered already at some point, and is available on the internet.
Google's our friend.
