I only have three sites on the current WP install, all with subdomains, all added by hand in cPanel. I don’t plan to add any more in the near future, and if I do then it’ll only be one or two and I can deal with it.
Wildcard subdomains are enabled on the DNS level — which seems to be a bit useless, come to think of it, though easier then going to my registrar and adding the DNS entries each time — but not with Apache/cPanel. Going to sdkfsdkfkdsfksdd.mysite.com just takes me to the Default Website Page thing.

All right. I’ll bug my host a bit to see if there’s anything else that can be done, then.
The main reason I want two separate installs is because I can’t get wildcard subdomains working on the web server level. I have to add each subdomain in cPanel.
Which would be really, really bad for users who want their own blogs.
Would it be possible, then, to convert my subdomain install into a subdirectory install and still have BuddyPress work happily? (I know it’s compatible with both, but any difficulties that could arise with a switched install versus a clean subdomain one..?) And would the Domain Mapping plugin work fine as a hack-around to get some sites as subdomains?
