I have a similar setup. At first I did the full install, and did get into
trouble trying to debug interactions between the two kinds of installation.
Now, I avoid installing the from-source-version in explorer and this gives a
stable system. For testing, the hgtk command gives access to all dialogs (I
think) from the command line.
You should do all steps, except "python tortoisehg.py" which installs the
explorer extensions - this means just do step 1 and 2 of the source
installation guide [1]. The only tricky part is mercurial installation. [2]
