At the moment, I cannot watch the videos, but doesn't the official tutorial on my website explain the installation process well enough? If not, what can I improve?

The problem with second-hand tutorials is that they often overlook something important, and that they are not up-to-date. Especially at the moment where Thor 2 is under development, I would prefer if people read the official tutorial. So if I have to answer questions, I know that I didn't explain it well ;)

By the way, your friend could have written me an e-mail :)

This is all true and your tutorial was fine for me to work it out... but I have this mate and he is a visual kind of person and he is my x-wife's new kid, meaning he has grown up on the internet and dose read as much as "skims" text. He found this tutorial easier to understand..

The tutorial is provided as is and you can either use it or not, or get a mod to del the thread.. As I said I made it for a mate of mine, so it is really for him.. I just thought some others might like to look at it as well.
