Correct (unless it's already compiled in)

You didn't specify the source of this information.  It may be obsolete.
I suggest you do only things the documentation tells you to do.

Correct.

Maybe you should try all this first.  And if refer to any information,
please tell others where to find it, just in case it needs correction.

Sorry, I'm not a support person, so don't expect any handholding from
me.  However, if you can show that you followed the current official
documentation and things didn't work, I could help fixing the
documentation.
