There is a fairly big note at the top which states that using the
livecd, installing dmraid, and then running ubiquity can allow you to
bypass the need for doing most of the steps. The document seems pretty
well updated for what needs to be done for 6.06, though. Just be careful
to read the steps fully to avoid doing something that is no longer
required by Dapper which might hose the system. Otherwise, the changes
you stated above seem proper.
Just to be clear, I do not use fakeRaid, and thus have not tried the
page in question.
