Excellent!!!!

A couple additional things you might want to make more clear in your instructions. This is just a suggestion, but there were a couple things that tripped up Jon when he tried it.

1. Clarify what you mean by "I'm going to assume that you've got the empeg's disk available as /dev/hdc.". Jon and I weren't entirely certain what you meant by that, since "hdc" doesn't necessarily mean anything to non-linux people. It was further confused by the fact that Hijack reported errors on HDB, due to the Mk1/Mk2 hdb/hdc compatibility trickery the kernel is performing.

I think what you were trying to say, there, was something more like: "This procedure assumes that you already have a working primary disk drive (hda) with the empeg software installed on it, and that the new drive you want to partition and format is in the secondary drive spot (hdc) with the slave jumper installed. This procedure partitions and formats whatever is plugged in as the secondary drive."

2. Clarify at the end where you say "The steps so far have prepared the disk only for holding music. If you're planning on using the disk as the primary disk in your empeg, you'll need to install a player image once you've fitted it."

Perhaps it might be worth it to say that installing a player image on the drive requires that the drive be swapped into the primary spot by changing the jumpers. And that installing a player image will erase Hijack, which will need to be reinstalled again for the large disk support.
