I feel sorry for you that you still haven't gotten it setup correctly. However it's really not difficult, if you follow the tutorial step by step not skipping anything and it will work. I've told you about anything that one could do and am out of ideas what you could possible do wrong.

Have a look at this post :)

where's bin?

After you Installed SFML it should be in the folder you defined as CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX.

No, you should first generate the makefiles with Cmake. Here's the official tutorial from Laurent.
Then you should build and Install SFML with you compiler.
Everything is explained in the tutorial mentioned above :)

It's extremely tedious to help you. You don't give clear or meaningful error messages, we always have to ask for every tiny little detail. This thread would not be so long if you a) adhered to the forum rules and b) took the time to carefully read tutorials, error messages and do research on your own.

There is no problem with CMake, it works for hundreds of users. Just read the official tutorial carefully, make absolutely sure you don't miss a step, and in case of problems check the obvious things, search whether other people have the same problem, and only if you really can't solve it ask here.

I agree with Nexus. 
Please show us the error messages you are getting from Cmake!
