only problem i got is that i don't understand this step of the wiki:

If that doesn't make sense, you should probably just wait for a release with a graphical installer.  The current build is meant more for testing and development, not ordinary users.

Finally i understood how to use cmd in windows, but does it works only with 2.02.26 OF? The latest firmware is 02.03.31...

Now if I understand correctly, I only need to copy the .rockbox folder and the new bin (fuzpA.bin) to root and that's it?

I am however a bit skeptical, about the chances of bricking my player and actually getting the fuze to play... So  any information about where I could try the .bin file before copying it (maybe the simulator)

The only place you can try it is on the device.
