You shouldn't have to do anything other than bunzip2 the dd image and
run the dd command above. I tested this and everything seems to be
working fine.
e.g.
:~$ sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=1M count=256
256+0 records in
256+0 records out
268435456 bytes (268 MB) copied, 74.5137 seconds, 3.6 MB/s
:~$ wget -q
ftp://ftp.embeddedarm.com/ts-arm-linux-cd/binaries/ts-images/fastboot-7300-sdcard-7-6-2006.dd.bz2
:~$ md5sum fastboot-7300-sdcard-7-6-2006.dd.bz2
a7d42537db49656c646c3123e153d0f3 fastboot-7300-sdcard-7-6-2006.dd.bz2
:~$ bunzip2 fastboot-7300-sdcard-7-6-2006.dd.bz2
:~$ sudo dd if=fastboot-7300-sdcard-7-6-2006.dd of=/dev/sda
bs=1M

:~$ fsck.ext2 /dev/sda3

/dev/sda3: clean, 14718/60000 files, 227014/239104 blocks
:~$ sudo mount -t ext2 /dev/sda3 /mnt/sd/
