I don't believe you can remove the default portal. As mentioned in the docs, there must always be one default portal named "default". Also, each portal instance must have a default page named "default". So in the descriptor files, these names can't be changed. The easiest approach is to modify the descriptor for the default portal, and add/remove content to fit your needs.
