Move two independent sites to network

Question

I have two independent sites, both have contents and plugins and themes. I know from docs how to convert one to a network but how do I import the second one on this network? By import I mean at DB level since I'll use directory approach for the network, any advice or help?

It's a good idea to search WP DEV before you post a new question: https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/search?q=migrate+multisite

And Google is a good try, too: http://www.google.com/search?&q=move+single+site+to+multisite+wordpress

The WordPress Codex is a good place to start: http://codex.wordpress.org/Migrating_Multiple_Blogs_into_WordPress_3.0_Multisite

Since Version 3.0, WordPress includes new multisite features, meaning that it can run many blogs, even with their own separate domains, on one WordPress installation. This tutorial explains how to migrate multiple WordPress installations into one new WordPress multisite. You can migrate sites that are using their own domain, as well as sites using a subdomain on your main domain.
