I'm sorry but I can't make any sense whatsoever of that post.
Find the /.rockbox directory on your player. Create a subdirectory called "doom."

Yes. Both "folder" and "Directory" are common terms referring to the same thing.

You do exactly what the manual says. Please stop asking people to reword it. If something in the manual is unclear, say "The manual says to do (whatever is in the manual) but I don't understand (the part you don't understand)" rather than simply not going back and rereading it.

This thread is getting really obnoxious.
