A layout is file that allows LyX to understand that LaTeX document class. (For the moment, don't worry about *.layout files; you use them automatically.) To use a given LaTeX class select it in Document > Settings > Class. If koma-script is unavailable, you need to install the appropriate LaTeX package (the LyX layout should already be available on your system).
Most of your questions should already be answered in either of these three documents in Help: Intro, Tutorial and User's Guide. (For example, User's Guide > Section 3.1.2.2 explains why some classes would be tagged as 'unavailable'.) If you still have questions after reading them (and re-reading, if necessary), please post back here.
