 * Concerns for installation:
 * 1. My website has multiple subwebs and subdirectories. When installing wordpress
   in root web, is there anything I should be concerned about in regards to the 
   subwebs and other files?
 * 2. I have wordpress installed in a subdirectory, is there anything I should worry
   about in installing a second blog in the root web?
 * 3. When installing a second blog in same database. In the config file, the line“
   $table_prefix = ‘wp_’; “, is this the actual prefix that needs to be changed?

 * 1. Not really… except the 404. WP tends to “overtake” that, not letting your 
   custom 404 page to be displayed. But there is workaround
 * 2. I have
    example.com – WP (in the root) example.com/wp1 example.com/wp2 example.
   com/wp3 subdomain.example.com/wp4
 * 3. Yes, change that to whatever you want, don’t forget the _
    wp2_ moshu_ 🙂
