Using phantom to import solana wallet that was created in cli

I created a Solana wallet in Linus using CLI. The laptop I used got bad and I lost all the information therein. Now, I was able to get the passphrase for the wallet, but the problem is that, I can't use Phantom wallet to import my account. What I have done:

  1. I installed a Phantom wallet on a new device.
  2. I selected "I already have a wallet".
  3. I then pasted the Secret Recovery Phrase of the account... But instead of Phantom to display the account that owns the Passphrase, it was busy displaying other account I do not know, and when I scanned through them, I didn't see the account I wanted imported. Please what can I do as I didn't have the private key to the account?

If you have the correct recovery phrase, you can then try Add / Connect Wallet -> Create new Wallet, it will add new keypair based on your mnemonic phrase. Eventually you should see your desired account (it might take several attempts depending on index where your desired account is located).
