Dave,

Looks pretty good to me.  A minor point, from
http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Wiki/Editing :
Guidelines considering style
      * Avoid the use of the first person singular ("I",
"mine" etc.) in
        pages, since it is of little use to the reader, and it looks a
        tad unprofessional. If you have to refer to yourself or someone
        else, refer to his/her Wiki page with contact information (or
        just the full name if that person does not have a page on this
        Wiki). 

Might want to take that into account.

I took the liberty of making a couple of cosmetic changes to the format
- Fixed Step 2 to look like steps 1,3,4 and changed your name to your
WikiName - per above guidelines.

Are we ready to make the link from the HowTos page?

Thanks for the contribution!
Works for me.  I'll avoid the 'I' and change that.


Phil
