Using VC8 linker to generate isolated app manifest with dependencies.

Is there a brief tutorial somewhere on how to use the VC8 linker to generate
a manifest for an isolated application with a dependency section for an
arbitrary dll? There are some implementation details that I don't
understand. Supposing I want to bind my application to a specific version
of kernel32.dll using a hash, for example? What hash is used? Is it the
hash generated by the CryptCATAdmin* functions or just a simple hash of the
whole file? Can I get the linker to generate the proper hash or do I have
to supply the hash dependency section with hash in a manifest include file?
Some additional details would be appreciated.

Regards,

George.
