Drupal - installation in subdomain

As stated in other thread, I have been having a first play with Drupal. I failed to install it in a subdomain. I tried both a plain subdomain owned by the site admin, and also a user subdomain attached to a new user. I got slightly different error messages, but both were to the effect that one of the install scripts could not find a path. The address in the browser seemed to suggest that the problem was one of aliases between the file paths with the forms domain.co.uk/var/www.subdomain , subdomain.domain.co.uk, Sedo - Buy and Sell Domain Names and Websites and Sedo - Buy and Sell Domain Names and Websites. One of the messages was a 500. In my haste I did not record the messages properly ....

Anyone know what I was doing wrong, with this little to go on?

I did install Drupal without any problems and in double quick time from a directory off the main site, so there is clearly nothing major wrong. If anyone cares, its good fun, very easy and quick to build a site with loads of features, but in use it is a bit mechanical, with none of the personality of my homebrew CSS sites.
