Tutorial: Mount Nano 6G Resource Partition

NanoHack.me - How to mount the 6th gen iPod Nano's resource partition, the prerequisite to this is that you have extracted the 9 partition files using Extract2G using this guide here: http://nanohack.me/?p=51

Mentioned Terminal command: dd if=rsrc.fw of=rsrc.img iseek=2 count=284672

Written version of this tutorial: http://nanohack.me/?p=68
This partition contains SilverImagesDB.LE.bin, ('Silver'=codeword?) the file which contains all the images for the Nano OS, if we can mod it and get it back onto the Nano, theming, custom clock faces, custom backgrounds and so on, should be possible.

When I try to do this in Cygwin on windows I get the following error: "dd: unrecognized operand 'iseek=2'".

Any ideas?
