That your menu item is still greyed out means that you didn't copy the right .bin file.

Note the the Kindle 2 International and Kindle DX are very similar internally so the instructions for the DX are the same as for the Kindle 2 International

To install on the Kindle 2i ; you have to "jailbreak" it first by installing this package first (http://www.avenard.org/kindle2/updat...kindle-k2i.bin) instructions are there:

Hope this helps...

My problem too! I clicked on the link for the K2 International version but I got a 404 not found message. Is there a new link? Thanks SO much!!
