If you're on MIUI i think you have the right bootloaders, but I'm not sure If no, just flash Gingerbread Starter and you'll have it done

Rather not. I though that Eclair has different partitioning system.

You MUST check if Download Mode works or not, and if you can boot into recovery or not If Download mode works just flash bootloaders once again via ODIN, then flash ROM via Recovery. If recovery works, flash the ROM.
