OK.

I am not sure about a auto-detection, but there is nothing to prevent you
from having more than one domain/forest on a network. They just will not
share AD objects.
Even if you install from the I386 folder, the files will be specific to SBS
in the same way that you can not use the I386 folder from a MSDN for a
retail install. The license keys will not work.
Having said that though, it is an interesting idea to test.

Is the point to have ISA as part of the SBS domain? If not, Then install the
2nd SBS using ISA as the firewall. If so, maybe go with a Sonicwall on the
edge to off load most work, then leave ISA on SBS for the integrated stuff.
