I didn't miss any steps, there is no need to edit any configuration files to achieve that goal, the GUI does it all. Why would your sister need to install a 3rd party kernel, or build wireless drivers from source? I've been using Linux professionally for 10 years, since before grub was even around, the only time I needed to edit grub.conf was to do a dual boot with Windows.
Why put your sister through all that hassle when you could just use a modern well configured Linux distro?
