Well at that point I can just guess that flashing the image you still need the image of sony because there are parts in it, which are needed to flash a third party image. But that should explain someone else, I can just guess there.
To be honest at that part I just behaved the trained monkey way . As I told you I'm just an average Linux user and maybe more the idiot than you because at some points I don't even try to understand, because I'm to lazy. So maybe that helped me with the instructions.
Which saved me at least a lot of time.
