I don't have documentation to recommend other than what you
mentioned.  However, a few things to look into:

1. If you have your R code in multiple files, you may need to use the
   DESCRIPTION file's Collate field to control the loading order.
   Basically, you want: Class defintions, generics, methods, other.

2. Put methods and any other packages you depend on in Depends.

3. Add SaveImage: yes.

Also, make sure R CMD INSTALL yourPackage/ works before trying R CMD
check yourPackage.
