[Q] how do I install a APK from the fastboot screen?

Hi,
I own a Bell Motorola atrix and after rooting the phone I accidentally deleted one the many moto apps (don't remember the exact name). As soon as I realized I deleted one of the system apps, I wanted to bring the app back, so I thought doing a hard reset will do but I was mistaken.

After the hard reset my phone won't go past motoblur activation. When I enter my motoblur account details, it tries to login but after a while I get "An internal server error has occured. Please try again" (I think this is because of app I deleted)
I tried skip setup but no use.

What should I do? I searched for Bell Atrix SBF but there is none, they are all for AT&T.
Is it possible that some one can take an image of their Bell atrix and I can somehow use that image to flash it back to stock?

Please help! :( This is my first android phone and have no idea how flashing to stock works.

Update: I found the Bell atrix dump with all APKs from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1004503&highlight=dump
Now my question is, how do I install the missing APKs from the fastboot screen or from Motoblur activation screen? (note: usb debugging turned off when I hard reset it :( ) Please help!

If you wish to wipe all data from your Motorola Atrix smartphone, you can perform a factory hard reset on the device. There are a couple of ways to accomplish this.

Software

If you can access the Android OS on the phone, this option is preferred. 1. Go to Settings. 2. Select Privacy. 3. Tap Factory data reset. 4. Select Reset phone. 5. Tap Erase everything.

Hardware

If your phone has issues and won’t boot normally, this is the option to use. 1. With the phone off, hold the Volume Down button while pressing Power. 2. A Fastboot screen should appear. Press Volume Down to navigate to the Android Recovery selection. 3. Press Volume Up. 4. A yellow triangle and Android logo will appear. Tap the bottom-right corner of the screen until a menu appears. 5. Tap wipe data/factory reset then tap OK. 6. Tap Yes then OK. 7. The Atrix will take a moment to peform the factory reset. When completed, select reboot system now then tap OK. This will clear all internal memory on the phone. SD card data is preserved, so if you’re transferring ownership of the phone or sending it back to the store, you may want to format the SD card as well. You can do so under Settings > SD card & phone storage.
