ipod linux + podzilla/floydzilla problems?

[tr1xxta]

honestly, i have no idea what i'm doing anymore.
i've follow two tuts:
The Great Photo-4G B&W-Color Tutorial READ B4 POSTING
and another one on this site i couldn't find again :X

both told me pretty much the same instructions, so i dunno where i am going wrong.
i start booting up my ipod after installing the linux and pod/floydzilla (i've alternated to see if i could get either to work)

basically, it boots through the dos looking junk, and then i get one of three errors.
the two that i keep getting now say:

"
stem
command: mv /hp/others/buck
mv: unable to open '/sbin/b
system
command: mv /hp/others/man .
tem
command: rm -r /hp/fonts
command: rm -r /hp/start
command: podzilla
"

"

/hda2 /hp
gs
ory 'hp/recordings' : file
pid 24: failed 256
shell invoked to run file:
/hp/start: no such file or
command: podzilla
"

where did i go wrong?
i read that this stuff is foolproof (from the intro to the tut)... and i'm not technologically challenged, i just have no idea what i did.

any help would be amazing.
i've been messing with this for 3 days.

*any link i've tried to use to download podzilla again hasn't worked, and i don't know where to get it now*

fyi:

firmware - 2006-06-28
(i can't get the version number because my computer won't recognize my ipod right now, but it does this for awhile before booting to the apple os)
