It is actually determining how to manipulate your password before hashing it. In addition, you are specifying hash mode 0, which does not use a salt to begin with.
Actually, doing a quick check, it appears that your hash 69c12c189531e95fc6b6b4191ce29220 is in-fact a plain MD5, and is NOT salted. So you can get rid of all the salt lines.
This was just a test the hashes that I am pulling tells me what the salt is so I know the first two charters thus turning it from a 6 letter password guess into a 4 letter work password. Trying to make the run time less by telling it what the first two letters are. This is because the passwords its giving me are 8 letters and with the salt makes it 10 so cutting the time down would be a very good thing.
