nevermind, i found out I have to use wordpress mu
WordPress 3.0, scheduled to be released in May, is going to combine WP mu and WP into one, so potentially you should be able to upgrade your WP 2.9 install into a multi-user site after the release. Not sure if that’s easier for you then starting again with a WPmu install. Depends on how deep into things you are I suppose.
Dumb idea, sorry. The implementation of mu is probably activated upon installation, given how different the databases look. You’ll need to reinstall regardless.
WP 3.0 will just require a line added to wp-config.php to enable the MU settings.
mrjarbenne – you will not need to reinstall. Like djpaul stated, a regualr WP install will only need to add a line to the config file, THEN they can enable the network and have multiple blogs (which will be called sites)

We’ll, there’s my learnin’ for the day, time to turn off the brain.
Thanks for the tip. I need to stop providing advice beyond my pay-grade. Just trying to give back.
Cheers.
No problem, mrjarbenne. We all start somewhere, and thank you for giving back 
@Andrea_R – very nice draft of the multisite process in WP 3.0, cheers
mrjarbenne – no worries, man. Just fillin’ you in so next time you have all the info.
mercime – thanks. I need to get crackin’ but I’m waiting for official beta.
