The table does allow you to expand by using VO-shift-\ and if that fails because my memory has failed me, try without shift. Either way I have done this many times and if you pay close attention to the instructions, you can't mess things up at all. It only gets messy if you try to migrate data to a machine that you have already established an account on. If you get really jammed, I could perhaps discuss with you off list.
