Since you already have Terminal open, the easiest way is probably to type (or copy and paste from here):

open -e /tmp/bootpd.plist

Then the file will open in TextEdit. Scroll to the end (the file isn't very long) and you should see the section mentioned in step 5. Proceed from there; post back if you need more help.

Also, make sure you save the file after changing 4 to 0 in step 6.
