Originally I used a few bungee cords to strap the backpack on and it worked fine, but it was a pain to get on and off. I was considering using four little keychain carabiners to clip onto the backpack's metal rings on the but was having trouble getting them fastened to the frame.

Instead I found four little flat spring loaded clips that worked perfectly. They were attached to some unrelated straps I had lying around. I sawed them off and pop riveted them to the aluminum frame so that they were aligned with the four pairs of rings on the backpack.
