You cant install TP in any other directory then where you have the SMF installed.
TP uses SMF and can not be installed as a standalone portal with out the SMF in the same folder.

If I'm not wrong then what you need to do is install TP into your sub-directory
Then in cpanel set up a redirect.So that www.xxxxxxx.com/smf points to www.xxxxxxx.com.

Why not just move everything you need into the proper directory?

Rider the redirect would be the other way round, www.xxxxxxx.com to www.xxxxxxx.com/smf

I had that same issue...I believe all I did was move the index and settings page to the root folder.

Thank you friend for your good answers.

I thing in MKPORTAL the index.php file you have to put it in the root folder.
