I have the following MySQL install SQL file. What I'm trying to do is modify so that is no longer refers to the installation ID as 31 but to a value set as the script is trying to run. Can anyone help?

ADDITIONAL INFO: (Sorry I forgot this...)
Isn't there a way to do this so that I don't have to use the ID 31? The 31 is supposed to represent an ID that is automatically generated from the INSERT INTO configuration_group VALUES ('', 'Easy Populate', 'Config options for Easy Populate', '31', '1');. command?
As you commented - use SET:
SET @installId = '31';
Then use @installId instead of '31':
INSERT INTO configuration_group VALUES ('', 'Easy Populate', 'Config options for Easy Populate', @installId, '1');
UPDATE
If the id is the last auto-incremented field from the previous INSERT statement, then you can use the LAST_INSERT_ID() function to retrieve it:
INSERT INTO configuration_group VALUES ('', 'Easy Populate', 'Config options for Easy Populate', NULL, '1');
SET @autoId = LAST_INSERT_ID();
You can then use the @autoId variable in place of '31' as above.
