My Beloved Mini Seems to be Dead

Hi everybody!
I'm panicking here! :-[
Tried to install R.box on my mini.
Now neither iTunes nor Rockbox work on it.
And can't uninstall Rockbox either!!!!!
I get this message:
"BAD CHECKSUM
HOLD MENU + SELECT TO REBOOT THEN SELECT + PLAY FOR DISK MODE
Partition 1:0x0B3866
Loading Rockbox.....
Length: 86DC8
Checksum: 361B611
Model Name: mn2g
Loading Rockbox.ipod
Sum:361B60F
Error!
Can't Load Rockbox.ipod"
If I hold: Select+Menu, I get this message
If I hold: Select+Play, simply says Disk Mode.....ok to Disconnect.
That's all!!
No other options.
Hopefully somebody had same problem and managed to solve it!

Many thanks for any help.

Llorean:
How did you install Rockbox, what exactly did you do, and what happens when you connect it while in disk mode?

h.finn:
Hi,
Thanks for the quick answer!
I installed it by downloading R. and unzipping it onto my computer...then installing it in mini.
I realise now this might not be the procedure to follow (ALWAYS read innstructions carefully!)
I restored factory settings through iTunes (WORKED, thank God!) and will now restart...
I have to unzip it directly to the ipod, don't I?

Llorean:
You should be using Rockbox Utility.

h.finn:
Great, thanks.
I'll give it a go now.............
I want to install first on the Mini to try it. If I managed properly I'll install it later on my newly bought 5.5gen refurbished!!
Ok............here we go!!
 ;)
.............
ALAS: FAT CHANCE!!!
No can do!!!!
Now I get:
"Rockbox Boot Loader Version 3.0
Ipod version: 0x0004001 HMS360404D5CF00
Partition1: 0x0B3866
Loading Rockbox.....
Error!
Can't Load Rockbox
Ipod file not found
Hold MENU+SELECT to Reboot
Then SELECT+PLAY for Disk Mode"
.............
What' happening?
What am I doing wrong?
 ???
