RD-mode can be done on a Windows PC; fix MALF state on a Linux installation...

If after plugging out the USB cable RD-mode doesn't proceed other than being stuck on that wrench icon it means RD-mode can't fix it and you need to fix via the other malf state method...
I get as far as this on the guide (http://wiki.maemo.org/N9QTweak#Troubleshooting) :
fdisk -l
1. Download the following files from their links and save to /home/$USER/Downloads/ where $USER is your username on the PC
flasher (download 32/64-bit according to your system)
N950 kernel
N950 rescue initrd
2. Open terminal on your PC and type:
sudo su
{enter your password}
cd /home/$USER/Downloads
flasher --load -k vmlinuz-2.6.32.20112201-11.2-adaptation-n950-bootloader -n initrd.img-rescue-2.6.32.20112201-11.2-n950 --boot
3. A message will pop-up saying Suitable Device/Phonenet not found...
4. After the above message appears, plug in your POWERED-OFF N9/50 to the PC. Make sure your phone is switched off beforehand; to be sure press the power button for 8 seconds to switch it off
5. Wait 1-3 minutes and your N9 should appear as 3 removable partitions on the system:
/dev/sdX1 which is MyDocs, /dev/sdX2 which is rootfs and /dev/sdX3 which is the home directory (userfs).
6. If the partitions are not mounted, you can check for their presence either by using GParted Partition Editor or typing the following in terminal:
fdisk -l
This is what I have in my terminal:
I don't know what to do next... Can somebody explain or point me to a video?
Thanks in advance
