How to: Copy ROM zip file to the freshly wiped device

I found and share with you, it worked.
Have you ever been in a situation where you mistakenly (or not) wiped the content of the internal storage (including system partition and virtual SD card) on your phone or tablet and unfortunately it doesn't support external storage? Now you can't flash desired custom ROM because you removed it and the device can't be booted due to wiped system partition. Don't worry - it's very easy to fix!

Here are the steps you need to follow to copy the correct rom.zip package to your internal storage:
Download this mini-sdk package and extract it to c:\mini-sdk
Rename the custom ROM package you want to flash to "rom.zip" and copy it to c:\mini-sdk
Connect your device to the PC
Boot your device in recovery mode
Open a command prompt on the PC (cmd.exe), type and confirm each command with ENTER:
cd /d c:\mini-sdk
adb shell
mount /data (error might mean that /data partition is already mounted)
on Android 4.2 and above: mkdir -p /data/media/0
on Android 4.1.2 and below: mkdir -p /data/media
exit
on Android 4.2 and above: adb push rom.zip /data/media/0
on Android 4.1.2 and below: adb push rom.zip /data/media
Wait for a few minutes until the file is copied. It will looks like command shell is not responding, but that means it's still copying. Wait patiently until you'll see blinking cursor again.
Depends on your custom recovery, use the navigation keys to flash the custom rom.zip package in a typical way you used to flash custom ROMs. It should be on your internal storage now. Done! http://android-revolution-hd.blogspot.com.tr/2013/12/how-to-copy-rom-zip.html

Invaders must DIE!
easier solution:

*bring device in recovery mode
*open cmd, go to adb.exe
*type adb.exe push *filename.zip* /sdcard/your path **/sdcard is already linked to /data/media/0
*wait after pushing the file, reboot recovery again
*choose file and flash

*** other method ***
*use the sideload function in recovery
*adb.exe sideload *rom.zip* in cmd
