i got another Kindle dx graphite, and failed to boot, but I can boot into recovery, I copy update_restore-os.bin and tried to recover from it, but it failed and went to recovery menu again and again. then, I press alt+e (3) key to get '3' on keyboard, but no response, but i can press 'e' key to see the Kindle disk with documents, music directory..., i tried to recover it manually as last method in README.txt. I see kindle disk on pc with around 4gb, but not 2gb. and it is the disk with documents, it's not rootfs. anyway I tried what README.txt said, dd it and reboot but no luck. what should I do to see the rootfs ? does anyone has kindle dx graphite rootfs backup to share ? thank you.
