Just a quick google search turns up a few things:

http://www.apug.org/forums/forum37/56959-reversal-processing-black-white-paper.html A little discussion on chemicals/exposure for the process

Just out of curiosity why won't a direct positive paper work for you?

Yes, this is the way Photbooths used to work. It's possible to get very high quality results as well.
