I marked with blackie the steps that I don't understand, and what exactly is the definition of ssh and how to work with linux (which version) to restore my kindle touch. Excuse me for my ignorance, I donīt really know much of system or this process, I beg if can explain in more details some terms and steps to follow. At this moment I only can get the kindle in fasboot mode the same as the images from this post

I do not have or use a Mac. Your questions will require some research and testing to create a detailed and accurate answer.

I do not have time to provide a detailed answer to your post for a few days. Could somebody else please answer these questions? Please try to provide simple, accurate and tested answers, and links to any referenced materials (like I "normally" do). Thanks.

There are also other options available for solving these problems. Start by reading this thread:
"Select Boot": https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=169645

The kindles run linux inside. Your post indicates that you may need to learn some basic linux commands (such as "dd", and more) -- or wait for others to provide a RUNME.sh script that will do these commands for you. Here is some information about some basic linux commands: http://www.my-guides.net/en/content/view/29/26/

I will eventually get back to this in a few days to see how it is going. If there has been no progress, I will see what I can do for you then...

Thanks...
