You install roms with xRecovery or Clockworkmod-recovery from the sd-card of your phone, not with flashtool.

First thing though, update your phone with PC-Companion, you should get the latest 2.1 firmware.

Make sure you have the Amend-Rom for xRecovery
Copy it to the sdcard of your phone

Use flashtool to root your device
reboot
Use flashtool to install busybox
reboot
Use flashtool to install xrecovery
reboot into xrecovery
Choose backup and restore - make backup
Choose install custom rom from sd-card
Select custom rom from sd-card
Navigate to the rom and choose yes
Press back to get into the main menu
Choose Wipe data/Factory Reset
Choose Wipe Cache
Go into Advanced
Choose Wipe Dalvik-Cache
Choose Wipe Battery statistics
Press back to get into the main menu
Reboot your phone and hope it boots fingers crossed, don't know how well it will play on 1.6
