Don’t know how MU does it but in the wp-content folder, define a file called install.php, and in that put a wp_install_default function. Since a default category of some kind is assumed, it’s a good idea to create a least one category (code example derived from /wp-admin/includes/upgrade.php):
<?php
function wp_install_defaults() {
global $wpdb;
// Default category
$cat_name = $wpdb->escape(__('Uncategorized'));
$cat_slug = sanitize_title(_c('Uncategorized|Default category slug'));
$wpdb->query("INSERT INTO $wpdb->terms (name, slug, term_group) VALUES ('$cat_name', '$cat_slug', '0')");
$wpdb->query("INSERT INTO $wpdb->term_taxonomy (term_id, taxonomy, description, parent, count) VALUES ('1', 'category', '', '0', '1')");
}
?>
You would need to add your code to create your pages there–see wp-admin/includes/upgrade.php for the example of the About page.

Thanks for your response MichaelH!
I was wondering if I could add another page by simply editing the file wpmu-funtions.php? Here is an extract of the file:
// First page
$wpdb->insert( $wpdb->posts, array(
'post_author' => $user_id,
'post_date' => $now,
'post_date_gmt' => $now_gmt,
'post_content' => get_site_option( 'first_page' ),
'post_excerpt' => '',
'post_title' => __('About'),
'post_name' => __('about'),
'post_modified' => $now,
'post_modified_gmt' => $now_gmt,
'post_status' => 'publish',
'post_type' => 'page',
'to_ping' => '',
'pinged' => '',
'post_content_filtered' => ''
) );
// Flush rules to pick up the new page.
$wp_rewrite->init();
$wp_rewrite->flush_rules();
Wouldn’t it be possible to just add another page, “//Second Page” for example!?
