I need some help to install usbnet.
I tried to install the binary and it failed, I went further more and did the following:
I converted the bin file to update_usbnetwork_0.46.N_dxg_install.bin.tgz file using the kindletool.
extracted that file to a direcory on my computer
placed the file usbnet.tar.gz from the inside the root directory of the kindle using the usb cable
created a directory customupdates
placed the file install.sh from the package into that directory.
Disconnected the usb.
used the launchpad command Shift Shift I to run the file install.sh
after I rebooted I found the usbnet directory under the root, looked inside and found the usbnetwork_install.log.
The message inside is

usbnetwork v0.46.N, Sat Jul 30 19:54:28 CDT 2011
ln: /usr/sbin/dropbearmulti: Read-only file system

So I guess the installation was unsuccessful.
Any ideas what is going on?
