If you install shortcuts to the start menu they will appear as a tile using the shortcuts largest icon. Some of the shortcuts may be on the main windows 8 start menu and some may be hidden under All Apps (right click anywhere that isn't a tile to see the all apps option).
You cannot install a 'start menu' application from the windows installer, they need to come from the windows store or certain versions of windows allow enterprise admins to sideload to that location after jumping through lots of security hoops.
