...or read at least first few pages, and decrypt it, as per:

I'm asking, as it's exactly what I had to do, for being able to help you. For me, it was exercise to refresh my memory about this procedure, but you were perfectly able to do it all on your own, even with 0 linux/maemo experience.

I understand your sentiments Estel, however, I am always telling people to understand what they are typing and not just follow blindly as some tutorials are badly written or some idiot puts in very dangerous commands.

That said, if a post tutorial has been around for a while and have positive comments in them, people can follow it blindly first and try to understand what they were typing to get the results they wanted.

Maemo5 is after all a hacker phone with nothing before it (or after it) coming close to it's hacking, modding, DRM-free platform.
