Great to see you playing with FarCry v2! The best place for installation queries is the farcry-dev mailing list. Details on how to join are available here:

created director D:\Data\farcry, unzipped files in here did mapping on Apache as follows
alias /farcry_demo "D:/Data/Farcry/farcry_demo/www" alias /farcry "D:/Data/Farcry/farcry_core/admin"
both checked OK on an html file
Run the install via http://localhost/farcry/install and I get Could not find CF component farcry.farcry_core.packages.security.init
from /farcry_core/admin/install/application.cfm line 29 Question 1) how does farcry know its mapping of /farcry and 2) how does it know where the /farcry_demo web site
Sounds to me like you have a missing ColdFusion mapping. You need a /farcry mapping pointing to the root directory of the farcry installation, "D:/Data/Farcry/".
The installation routine should automatically add this mapping so I'm not sure what is going on there. Try adding it manually and see if that does the trick :)
I have taken the liberty of forwarding this message to farcry-dev in case some of the bright sparks out there have other ideas :)
