G'day John,
I usually use my polar scope to align the octans and then drift align to touch it up. There is an article in the Projects and Articles page about drift aligning. If you don't have a polar scope you can position your mount using the line through crux etc as you mentioned and then drift align to touch it up. You will need a reticle eyepiece to do this properly though. Hope that helps.
