Hmm well. Guess I'll have to do all this one more time to be certain anyways so to this end I'll try upgrading it to 3.4 then flatten it again with the 3.0.2 and run through the sequence again.

So. Install the 3.4 update:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/custom...&tag=pamisl-20

extracted bin to /mnt/us and MENU -> SETTING -> MENU -> UPDATE YOUR KINDLE -> OK

TBC...

EDIT:

Update Successful. Machine reboots.
"Please wait a moment while we make your kindle have more stuff on it"
Reboots again... Kid under tree...

New Message: "Your Kindle Is Updated"

Dear you,
Your Kindle is updated!

We've updated your kindle...
Very nice of them.

MENU -> SETTINGS (in the status bar at the bottom)
(3.4 (999999blah) I see this)

So actually as a route to installing 3.4 from being stuck with a now dated custom kernel this route is a complete and successful one.

Next up. Test the Jb.
