the article is well written and looks complete to me. so yes, it is that easy

there is a sun tool called "JET" (jumpstart enterprise toolkit) which can be downloaded at the sun website. this tool works with templates and is easy to use and will help you configure jumpstart. i'll recommend this tool!
