That is exactly what I did with two exceptions. 1) I installed the prc-tools in c:\PalmDev since there was no instruction to keep defaults or make sure that it was stalled in c:\cgywin and since it appeared that the instructions were suggesting that I do so.
2) I left the pilrc checked. Other than that, that is exactly what I did. I'll try this again tonight.
