One of the problems is that right now, it's painfully difficult to install a multisite. Because we overwrite settings.php, BUT we require a pristine copy for the installer to work correctly, AND we no longer include sql files for manual installation, it's no longer possible to simply copy sites/default and go. You have to copy it, delete settings.php, download a new copy from drupal.org, copy IT over, THEN run the installer on your new domain.
I've been making the new directory and setting up the settings.php in a new directory. Then, I go to install.php and it does the install (without asking anything) and says its done. Completely undocumented, but it works somehow. I don't trust the installer with any permissions on sites/... since it wrote .../default/settings.php when I first tried it and that managed to make it into a commit. -- Neil Drumm http://delocalizedham.com/
