Error 404 on images/files when running EPiServer CMS 6.0 on ASP.NET 4.0

I found this excellent post regarding ASP.NET 4.0 and EPiServer CMS 6:

http://world.episerver.com/Articles/Items/EPiServer-CMS-60-now-supporting-ASPNET-40/

I followed all steps and, surprise: No images, no working downloads… hmm… Luckily, it turned out to be a simple fix! The site had some handlers registered for certain file types, and they had a runtime-version specified this way:

   1: <add name="*.jpg_GET,HEAD" path="*.jpg" verb="GET,HEAD"

   2: type="EPiServer.Web.StaticFileHandler, EPiServer"

   3: preCondition="integratedMode,runtimeVersionv2.0"/>

Just remove the attribute preCondition and it works fine!
