You create the menu manually (well I did). there may be a taxonomy module
that can generate it automagically for you, but i don't know.

I already had all the site content in place when i put MenuTrim in place, so
it was more a case of editing all the menu items and moving their parent
Menu from 'Navigation' to 'Home'.

MenuTrim took care of the rest.
