Google'ing "CyanogenMod" lead me to another forum (from there I found numorus links/downloads/info .. all related to stock units, but maybe its worth a try anyway).
From what I can tell (by looking around at various sites) rooting even a stock Fire is a long drawn out & complex process (certainly looks do-able though...some of the commands look unix/linux 'ish  )
A 'stock' Kindle ROM is 200mb .. and guess I need a 100mb 'Android SDK' too  downloading thats gonna take awhile LOL |
Actually, it's not too painful to root a Fire. After the few necessary files were downloaded, it took about ten minutes to root it and boot it up as a tablet.
Go ahead and give it a try.
