    Hey
    I am using this guide to try and flash my N900 to global firmware
    http://maemofanatics.com/how-to-flash-your-nokia-n900/
    I have the firmware downloaded and the flasher installed
    But i am stuck on this step:
    'Remember that firmware image we downloaded? You will want to move that file into the same directory that you installed Maemo Flasher 3.5 and is shown when you first launch the tool.'

    How do I do that?
    sorry for being a nooob haha

    If you downloaded both to the default location, they are already in the same directory. If you are trying to figure out where to save the .bin file, just save it to the default location.
