IMO it's best to have just one my.cnf.ini.

See the manual about how to set up InnoDB. You will have to create the
InnoDB directory yourself, then set
    innodb_data_file_path = <filename>:<size>
    innodb_data_home_dir = <path.
    innodb_log_group_home_dir = <path>
    innodb_log_arch_dir = <path
in my.cnf/ini.
