Someone already did it and documented it.

I just found this. I tried to do it on my own, pay heed to the part about
manually upacking files. There is a difference between the Linux sh shell
of those days and the modern bash shell.

I only spent a few minutes on it and did not get past the shell error.

I'll try again tomorrow or later in the week.
