You do not need to do any of that. Follow the directions here to create a USB Drive to install ROCK.

By the way you are better off using the M.2 drive for ROCK and the SSD for music, I assume the SSD is larger in capacity?

Rock Install Guide:

For initial install you need a monitor and keyboard attached so you can go into BIOS, update as required and change a few settings.

This also details how to make a USB drive to install ROCK.

Give yourself and hour or so to become familiar with what you need to do and keep these instructions on hand as you do the initial install.

I am not a LINUX expert either and you do not need to be for this install.

BTW those instruction you posted you can ignore, you want to use the ones right before them:

Windows / Mac OS / Linux
Plug in your USB flash drive (it must be larger than the factory reset image size -- 1GB is more than enough).
Download and install Etcher from https://etcher.io/
Start Etcher
From the Etcher application interface, select your .img.gz file as "the image"
From the Etcher application interface, select your USB flash drive as "the drive"
Click on "Flash!"
