Unpublished 0-day exploit (until we need it). You are welcome! And congratulations!

EDIT: My 0-day exploit works on the Paperwhite too. I remember running diags, and I thought I tested my exploit, but I do not remember how I got my Paperwhite into diags. ???

Now see if chattr +/- i ... works on your K5
Not even 'root' can deleted a file or directory with 'i' set on it.

Note:
Best that I know, mmcblk0p3 (a.k.a: /var/local) is mounted at the same point in the file system in both 'main' and 'diags'.
I.E: It is common to both of them.
So if we take over an increased size /var/local for end-user applications . . .

Yup, that eMMC could do with more than just a bit of tender, loving care.

When I get that broken DX(G) to network boot . . .
Then the eMMC will be just another piece of hardware that we can diddle with as we please.
Starting with sym-linking that OTA updater's name to /bin/true.

The network booting only depends on u-boot, one "HowTo" should (mostly) fit all K's

And if you had tried to rm /var/local/something_new after setting the 'i' (immutable) attribute you would have gotten a "permission denied" - even as 'root'.
Works for directories also, but I don't know what would happen if the start-up script got a "permission denied" error code.
I didn't see much error checking in that lab126 script you posted.

init level?

Remove battery?

OR do a "geekmaster" -
leave this one in 'diags', buy another, then leave that one in 'main'
At least I think that is why he has dozens of them.
