the way you did it is the way I always did it for the larger pistons, but my wife isn't always here, so I figured another way.

I lubricate the dust boot so it is a little slippery, then put it on the piston, and slide the piston all the way in the cylinder. Once its in, I use a curved pick to work the edge of the boot completely into the seal, make sure its fully in, then add the retaining ring.
