That's the idea, I think it simplifies things but that's just personal preference. Doesn't solve the problem if there is a permissions issue though. I don't know if Wordpress has a problem being in a subdirectory of another Wordpress install, never tried it.

No, I don't think it's permissions.
I'm making some progress. I copied the 'DB_NAME', 'DB_USER' and 'DB_PASSWORD' from the other wp-config.php. Now the error I'm getting when I do "www.youllallpay.com/kb/wp-admin/install.php" is:
You appear to have already installed WordPress. To reinstall please clear your old database tables first.
Which tells me that, duh, it doesn't want to overwrite the database I pointed it to. Which is nifty.
So, obviously, I need a second database that I can point the second installation of WP to. Right?
So, how do I make a database?

Totally depends on your setup.
Do you have access to a command line shell for your account?

Hang on, is there a "table prefix" setting or something like that?

Yes, yes there is!

Yes there is!
Change the prefix from 'wp_' to 'kb_' (or whatever) and try again.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Thanks, Tom - that bit of xsl code does exactly what I want.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Kee-rist. I can't find Vista drivers for my Scanmaker 5900. Remind me why this upgrade was a good idea again? It's not a hinky scanner!
