However, for activating the mode, I understand there is no public tool under Linux, except in the future the sbloader program that geekmaster is working on. The only way is to use MfgTool under Win. Am I correct? |
There is no linux sbloader program for the kindle. There are sbloader tools for other freescale i.MX devices (such as the RockBox project that I mentioned). Different devices use different VID/PID and may have other USB protocol differences. That is why I am in the (currently stalled) progress of porting RockBox sbloader to the kindle.
We only use a small part of MfgTool (for windows), and that part is also supplied by sb_loader (and sbloader).
