Choosing a starting wall cabinet is the most important consideration. The variety of possible layouts means that the cabinet you start with in one layout, could be the final cabinet you install in another. In most cases, start with the cabinet located in the corner and work from there.
Using a pencil and a four foot level, draw a level line at the bottom of this cabinet (and if you wish, do this for all your wall cabinets). Locate the studs using a stud finder or other acceptable method. If you are doing a remodel, finding and locating your studs can be very simple. Simply note the location when you remove your old cabinets.
Getting your cabinet positioned on the wall so that it will remain in position long enough to allow you to fasten it securely in place can be done a number of different ways. As I read this, I realize that I am merely writing an instruction booklet. Boring. That is what happens when you try to cover all cases. But, your cabinet installation isn't all cases is it? Perhaps you have some specific question that isn't covered by the instructions that came with your cabinets? Do you have plan or layout from a local kitchen cabinet supplier? I am willing to take a look at it and give you my opinion on how to approach your cabinet installation.
