Try changing the table prefixes on at least one of the installs in wp-config.php.
To esmi’s point, I’ve successfully used table prefixes.
The relevant MySQL documentation for this appears to be here.

Thanks — I’ve already set different prefixes in the table, so I know the data is separate, but how do I assign each domain to only fetch data with the correct prefix?
Also, will i be able to run different themes on each blog?
You set the $table_prefix in wp-config.php and that’s how each domain knows what “tables” to use.
but since both blogs share the same root menu, they are sharing the same wp-config…
If they do share the same wp-config.php then you are doing some ‘coding foo’ in your wp-config.php to do that.
I have just tried to open a new WordPress site, and when I get to “install” in the admin subdir it gives mee a full page of error-messages.
It appears that it may be a related issure to the one here. Diid I once have a blog on this root-domain? I don’t remember. I have 2 on another site completely (different root, user info, etc)
Any help – most appreciated.
Here is the first batch:
“‘.__(‘Already Installed’).’
‘.__(‘You appear to have already installed WordPress. To reinstall please clear your old database tables first.’).’
‘);} $php_version = phpversion(); $mysql_version = $wpdb->db_version(); $php_compat = version_compare( $php_version, $required_php_version, ‘>=’ ); $mysql_compat = version_compare( $mysql_version, $required_mysql_version, ‘>=’ ) || file_exists( WP_CONTENT_DIR . ‘/db.php’ ); if ( !$mysql_compat && !$php_compat ) $compat = sprintf( __(‘You cannot install because WordPress %1$s requires PHP version %2$s or higher and MySQL version %3$s or higher. You are running PHP version %4$s and MySQL version %5$s.’), $wp_version, $required_php_version, $required_mysql_version, $php_version, $mysql_version ); elseif ( !$php_compat ) $compat = sprintf( __(‘You cannot install because WordPress %1$s requires PHP version %2$s or higher. You are running version %3$s.’), $wp_version, $required_php_version, $php_version ); elseif ( !$mysql_compat ) $compat = sprintf( __(‘You cannot install because WordPress %1$s requires MySQL version %2$s or higher.
