I need help on working with Rizzo's kindle standalone terminal app. I'm very noob at this, so go easy.. :( (..and I don't even think I'm at the right topic)

I followed the instructions step by step on http://tinyapps.org/docs/kindle_stan..._terminal.html and everything went fine, until I reached this:

Quote:
# Save the following script on the Kindle as /etc/init.d/kiterm
#! /bin/sh
# /etc/init.d/kiterm
case "$1" in
start)
echo "Starting kiterm "
/mnt/us/kiterm/myts.arm &
;;
stop)
echo "Stopping kiterm "
killall myts.arm
;;
*)
echo "Usage: /etc/init.d/kiterm
{start|stop}"
exit 1
;;
esac
exit 0
# Add a link in /etc/rc5.d on the Kindle so that kiterm starts automatically at boot (and late enough that the launchpad keyboard hooks register):
# ln -s /etc/init.d/kiterm /etc/rc5.d/S97kiterm
I get a return error: "/bin/sh: /etc: Permission denied" after typing: /etc/init.d. I tried /etc/init.d/kiterm and I get "/bin/sh: /etc/init.d/kiterm: not found".

I tried the fullscreen version of this. Same problem.

What am I doing wrong? Is there a key that I can use to get around this? Or am I doing everything wrong?
