Cannot scale sitecore with solr search

I am using Solr 4.3.0 and referring this document where I am generating the schema.xml by clicking Generate the Solr Schema.xml file in the control panel but I am not able to figure out what exactly should I do the two schema.xml files and where exactly am I supposed to place it. I could not proceed until I find a way. I am stuck at page 31 on the PDF.

Solution
    1. Open the location of Solr core configuration, e.g. C:\solr-4.3.0\example\solr\itembuckets\conf
    2. Copy schema.xml file to original-schema.xml
    3. Login to Sitecore Desktop
    4. Open Control Panel -> Indexing application
    5. Select Generate the Solr Schema.xml file
    6. For Source File select original-schema.xml from the point 2.
    7. For Target File select schema.xml from point 2.
    8. Click Generate >

    Sitecore will use the original-schema.xml file as a base and will override schema.xml Solr configuration with the configuration containing required changes.
