Yep, and I am sure you will find many step-by-steps in the list archives, I 
have posted at least one myself.

Either or both, whatever works for you. In all likelihood you'll want each 
catalog to have at least some, if not all, if its data in its own db, but 
mutliple catalogs can share command data easily in full or in part.

Yes, and the foundation mySQL setup does just that.
