Just skip the whole installer. In a typical Koha release bundle you'll
find six interesting folders:

* [opac|intranet]-[cgi|html]
* modules
* scripts

Create /usr/local/koha/[intranet|cgi] (i.e., with mkdir -p) and then
move cgi-bin, htdocs, modules and scripts accordingly. The only missing
step is to provide a valid /etc/koha.conf (an example is provided in the
Koha bundle, too, just adapt it to your values) and create the Apache
configuration (an older Koha installation provides a good example)

I have both a farm of Koha systems using different database but same
code, and a multi-code installation with a single database. It's not the
cleanest way, but anyway. In a Windows system the process is logically
the same but you should create "folders" instead of directories.

HTH,
Jose
