Well, now that you've done it the hard way... 

Try the easy way!  ;)

http://www.tuxfan.homeip.net:8080/rule/slinky/slinky-v0.1.3.img

Should allow you to install from an image file by specifying the 
partition the image resides on, and the name of the image file.
You'll be prompted for the info.

Enjoy!
Let me know if you  have any trouble, of course.
