title: Custom 404 page in Magento
body: <p>I know you can create and customize 404 pages directly within the Magento backend. However, I am wanting to completely use my own 404 customized page and was wondering how to do this. </p>
  
  <p>I have created a 404.html file and added it in the root of my magento installation. However, I don't see in the .htaccess file how magento currently is redirecting the 404 to the CMS 404 page. How can I have it redirect to my custom 404 html file instead without causing some sort of never ending redirect loop?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
