Some errors i found installing without quick start

Hi
I wanted to install Mago theme to update a current website, so did not want the demo content supplied with the quick start package. I followed the user guide but found some errors, I have managed to fix them and post here for your information.

Some errors I found and corrected when installing without quick start.

1. xml for home page, I could not find the full xml required for the home page in the user guide

i found the full xml from the sql file in the quick start and copied and pasted this into the layout of the home page:

Code:

<reference name="topsl">
                 <block type="cms/block" name="position-1">
				<action method="setBlockId"><block_id>position-1</block_id></action>
		</block>
		<block type="cms/block" name="position-2">
                                <action method="setBlockId"><block_id>position-2</block_id></action>
		</block>
                <block type="cms/block" name="position-3">
                               <action method="setBlockId"><block_id>position-3</block_id></action>
		</block>
</reference>
<!-- Bottom Spotlight - topsl -->
<reference name="mass-bottom">
               <block type="cms/block" name="position-5" >
                            <action method="setBlockId"><block_id>position-5</block_id></action>
                </block>
</reference>

2.Slide show: currently the guide only shows settings for the cms static bock and not the config settings for the slide show in system>configuration>jm slide show.

I have guessed my settings for now using the general settings from the extension guide from here

3. Two images on top right of home page not displaying:
I corrected this buy adding this class to the cms static block " static-top bg-static-1" and "static-top bg-static-2"
e.g. my static block content now looks like this
cms block: Static-top1, position-2

Code:

<div class=" static-top bg-static-1">
<ul>
<li><a class="text-title"> Winter SALE </a> <a class="sub-text-title"> up to 70% OFF </a> {{widget type="cms/widget_page_link" anchor_text="Shop Now" title="Shop Now" template="cms/widget/link/link_block.phtml" page_id="9"}}</li>
</ul>
</div>

I am still working on this and will report any further findings here
