The main thing that could possible need to be updated is "jailbreak bridge" (I'm just guessing since I've never owned Kindle 4 nor did I use Kubrick since it doesn't support newer Kindle models), before updating firmware to the newest available (4.1.3 ?) . To insure survivals of jailbreak certificate.


Once you have jaibreak (and MKK) on your Kindle adding KoReader is basically couple of simple steps:

1) download KUAL arhive > unpack somewhere on you PC> connect you Kindle via USB cable, copy " KUAL-KDK-1.0.azw2" file to your Kindle driveinto /documents folder (were you transfer normal book files when "sideloading"). KUAL is a "kindlet" which is a special type of "book".
2) download correct KoReader archive from Github page, unpack it onto you Kindle drive
3) run KUAL and use it to start/launch KoReader
It worked, thankfully the default Kindle OS and KUAL were already installed alongside Duokan, so all I had to do was extract the github zip into the main directory and run KUAL.
I thought I'd need to run Linux in a VM and figure out how to install like 500 dependencies, wew...
