I am of the opinion that if you want to learn something that you just 
dig in and go for it at full bore, (even if you brake it, as this is a 
very valuable learning experience in and of itself and one of the best 
ways to learn*) not skirt around the issue using some wizard thingy so 
you never have to learn it. What happens when your wizard thingy stops 
working or brakes your system, what are you going to do then?

*This is why I setup test machines and try to brake crap then try to fix 
it, If I can't then all I have to do is wipe it clean and start over. 
VMware works very well for this.
