Unhappy [Q] MIUI Rom instalation problem

Hey guys..I tried to install MIUI rom for samsung galaxy 5 according to this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1572918
but the problem is that while i'm in recovery mode my mobile cant find the update.zip file even though it's in the sd card..
What am i doing wrong?
The only reason i'm making a post here is because i cant make one in the development section as i just registered in xda
Thanks in advance..

Don't choose the update one. It's just Install zip from sd card.
