The install.php script will use the default, reinitialized as you say, Drupal install. You will have to create an install profile of your own, see http://drupal.org/node/67921. As of yet, there is no known multi-site administer module, though there has been some work and ideas floated around.

Sent: Monday, January 29, 2007 8:23 AM To: support@drupal.org Subject: [support] Common Configurations of Multiple Sites Hi, I have a single drupal installation with multiple sites. I can somewhat easily customize each site individually, such as enable and configure modules, add user roles, etc. However, when I realize that I need a specific user role for all of my 5 drupal sites (particularly, site admin with reduced privileges), I find it tedious to log into each site separately and configure it. The problem escalates as the number of sites goes up. I was wondering if there is an easier way to mass-configure all sites in a single installation? (I am guessing the answer is no, because conflict resolution could be complex?) When creating a new site (i.e., copying sites/default to something else), and running the install script (install.php) on that site, are the default settings for the new site copied from the default site that I reconfigured, or reinitialized with Drupal default values? If it's the latter, is there an easy way to change installation defaults? If any of these questions have been answered elsewhere, I'd appreciate a pointer to the answer.
