I haven't tried starting from Squeak 4.2-xxxxx.  I started from a 4.1 image,
changed the update URL to trunk, did SmalltalkImage unloadAllKnownPackages,
loaded the various Cog VMMaker packages, loaded the latest
MonticelloConfigurations, did the moral equivalent of MCMcmUpdater
updateMissingPackages: false. and then step 3.  But I would expect that the
above would work provided that you insert the extra step:

1) Take http://ftp.squeak.org/trunk/Squeak4.2-10382-alpha.zip
<http://ftp.squeak.org/trunk/Squeak4.2-10382-alpha.zip>1.5) Make sure the
latest MonticelloConfigurations is loaded
2) Evaluate
      SmalltalkImage unloadAllKnownPackages.
      MCMcmUpdater updateMissingPackages: false.
3) Choose 'mouse' menu, 'Update Squeak'
