Not only that. You'll run into problems again when you get to the chapter on security. In machine.config there's a connection string that uses SQL Express to automatically create a database with the required schema for Membership, Roles, Profile and more. If you have your own database, you'll need to manually create the schema and data (using a tool called aspnet_regsql), reconfigure the providers and update your connection string. So be warned ;-) Appendix B deals with this in detail.
