You must follow the instructions on the wiki.  You did not extract the
rootfs.

Your partitions numbers are wrong from what you have said.  I added a
warning to
watch partition numbers and what to change.

Please do _not_ try to make a "single crystal clear wiki page."  Please fix
relevant sections of the wiki, but do not try to concatenate all sections to
one
page for what you, personally, are trying to do.  This leads to multiple
crummy
pages.
