Haven't done this myself yet, but will do tonight once i'm fully charged.
I guess you are at point 7.

but please do check that you do have the file copied to the root of your pb before reloading.

Good luck!
Okay, I see.

It wasn't clear to me that the procedures 5 through 7 was being replaced by "place file in the root directory."

Thanks for the help! My firmware is now up-to-date!

I still can't use my SD card though...
