I think these changes should be enough:

-------------------------------

32.3.5.3. WPA Host-based Access Point

hostapd_enable=3D"YES" -> ifconfig_wlan0=3D"HOSTAP"

32.3.5.3.1. WPA-PSK

/etc/hostapd.conf -> /etc/hostapd-wlan0.conf
ctrl_interface=3D/var/run/hostapd -> =
ctrl_interface=3D/var/run/hostapd-wlan0

# service hostapd forcestart -> # service netif wlan0 forcestart=20

-------------------------------

Thanks,
