I prepared a simple how-to in making garmin map with mkgmap. This is a request from several people. http://epsg4253.wordpress.com/2009/03/06/diy-garmin-routable-map-from-openst...
Please have a look and correct if there are errors or a better way in doing it.
I notice in your example call of mkgmap that you do not include the --product-id parameter. I think this is important when you produce maps for distribution: otherwise the default map ID will be 42, which could conflict with other maps produced from mkgmap. (Adding the --family-id parameter would also not be a bad idea, to further ensure that custom maps do not conflict with any others.) Otherwise I think your blog article is quite helpful. Cheers!
