Hello Toomas. You must have done a fare share of digging around to come up 
with that hack. The information that I used came from about six or seven 
documents, some translated from other languages. Most of them were outdated.

However, the overall gist of your hack is similar to the HOWTO that I wrote. 
Please take a look and tell me if there is anything that you would add.
