Drupal 7 WSOD Install Problem with FreeBSD 8.1-p2 after Configure Site

Apache 2.2.17 (with AllowOverride All)
PHP 5.3.4 (with php-pdo installed)
MYSQL 5.1.54 (with InnoDB)

I am having a problem installing Drupal 7 on FreeBSD 8.1. The installation proceeds well until I fill out the Configure Site page, then press 'Save and Continue' a WSOD page appears. Up until this point the database has been created with 73 tables but there is nothing in the users table ie., no admin user has been created. I have looked in the watchdog table and there are no useful clues. I have set my apache logs to debug and again no useful information, other than "File does not exist:/*/*/drupal-7.0/favicon.ico" which suggests to me the .htacess file is being read OK. I have enabled display_errors as TRUE in index.php with no error output.

I have been mostly doing the install using Firefox and WSOD is complete white. When I tried with Chrome I got this error msg "The web page at http://****.co.uk/install.php?profile=standard&locale=en might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address."

If I try to go to the site root with index.php it shows the D7 login page but when I try to login as admin it says no user name (obvious after I found no users in the table).

Theming Drupal like Wordpress

It just occurred to me how unbelievably simple Wordpress theming actually is. It breaks all the parts of a theme down to individual files ie sidebar, sidebar footer, header, page footer, archives, comments, tags, etc Wouldn't this be ideal for Drupal theming ?

What better way to make theming in Drupal dummy proof ?

Administration Menu Module

(New to Drupal)

After installation of Administration Menu Module, I have both this new menu and the original Management Menu displayed at the top of the page when logged in as administrator.

Is there a way to turn off the original Management Menu and leave Administration Menu Module functional?

Thanks.

For example : If I create a new article for term1 , and I uploading some images for that article , all images to be uploaded in imagesterm1 folder .
If I create a new article for term2 , and I uploading some images for that article , all images to be uploaded in imagesterm2 folder .

Multi-language site with Drupal 7

Has anyone managed to make a multi-language site with Drupal 7?

I have the following modules installed:

Language assignment, Language icons, Locale updater apart from Locale & Content translation.

With Drupal 6, I have made some sites which give you the option of choosing the via a language selector the language the site should be displayed in, leading to translated content appearing with the corresponding translated interface.

There seems to be something missing in Drupal 7, inspite of following detailed instructions, for example at http://drupal.org/node/133977, which are more complete for up to Drupal 6. I noted some settings in D7 are different or those referred to for older versions missing.

I have repeatedly looked at the settings pages of the different modules, but have not seen how to achieve the mentioned effect.

If you translate content & assign it a translated menu link, you have both menu items of the translated & the original pages in the main menu, for example both "About us" & translated page link "Über uns". So what i have done, is not to create a link item for the translated content page. The content can currently only be accessed via a language button on each page where content has been translated.

The language switcher appears in the block settings section, but does not appear on the page at all.

Some modules I'm looking for

Hello awesome Drupal community :D

I'm trying to build a website quite similar to http://www.joystiq.com/ Since this is my first Drupal website, I still have some questions.
I'm looking for some features that maybe are in some modules which I don't know of. Drupal 7 is the version I'm using.
