[support] profiles - update

[Marty Landman]

I have located the profiles directory which wasn't on my directory 
tree but is on another site's on the server. The developers are not 
around so I'm on my own but seem to be making progress.

However am wondering how the Drupal installation would even know it 
needed a profile. Does there have to be at least a profiles directory 
with a default folder on it for installation to proceed? Funny, I've 
done prolly a few dozen Drupal installations but never took note of that.
