Easy answer to all questions: if you don't understand the directions, do not attempt jailbreak.

If by that you mean 5.8.8 - (not 5.8.7 or earlier) - then:
Also install the "Rescue Pack" -
If you ever need it, it will then be too late to install it.

Every one of the places (here) that you downloaded anything from contain directions, and usually those directions are repeated inside of the archive.

1) Decide first what you want to do differently than what Amazon provided.
2) ONLY THEN decide what to download (after reading the directions).

Hint:
NiLuJe's snapshot thread (where you should be getting packages from) contains the most recent builds of the things most popular among users.
