Screensaver Cover page ebook adaption (using Sigil?)

Hi everyone,

since this christmas I'm the proud owner of a PRS-T1 and generally very happy with it.
Just one "problem" (or better call it an inconvenience ;-) ) appeared (actual question is in the last paragraph):
When I send my reader to sleep mode it displays the first page of the book. For my bought books this is correctly the cover page but as I also downloaded quite some cassics from gutenberg.org. I saw that they usually start right away with the (license)text which is than displayed in sleep mode.

Setting a cover image in calibre won't fix it so I think I'll have to fix the ebook manually. I found that Sigil might be able to help me but I don't know what exactly to do and therefore ask the epub pros here for help.

Question (bold for those short of time -> What steps do I need to perform to set the book cover as the first page within an ebook such that a prs-t1 (possibly other readers) will display it when in sleep mode.

Thanks for all answers
