If you ran this cmd with no errors you are ready to install the drive.
The nomencleture below will help explain the cmd line.
if = input file or device (/mnt/snap##00.bin)
of = output file or device (/dev/hdb = hd on ide0 slave)
You are right, you can not mount a drive without a mbr.
dd = digital dolly. There is also a live cd version out (download.com or majorgeeks.com)
