Actually, with the latest firmware for the Oregon, you don't have to
go through all of that bother and have multiple .img files loaded
simultaneously. See the release notes for beta 2.99 of the Oregon
firmware[1].  Don't actually load beta 2.99, use the release 3.10
version[2].

Unfortunately I don't think that any of the older Garmin models have
that capability.  The Colorado and the Dakota may have it (at least in
beta form).
