Perhaps installing Duokan helps with Jailbreak?

During the restart I connect the USB cable and then use the following DOS command to copy the jailbreak file over as soon as the Kindle is seen:
for /l %i in (1,1,10000000) do dir E: && copy C:\Kindle\kindle-3.2.1-jailbreak-0.5\update_jailbreak_0.5_k3w_install.bin E: && exit
(I previously just tried copying quickly, but went for this automated approach when it wasn't working).
I then remove the USB cable.
I request an Update Your Kindle.
The Kindle starts the update, then fails the the U0007 error in the bottom left of the screen.

Not sure what I can do to improve on this? And, just to check, as long as the copy is done immediately on the availability of the Kindle, there's no timing requirements afterwards, right?
Have you installed Duokan? I did on mine and one of the requirements for that was no Jailbreak - see link use Google Translate to decode it!. So I did install Duokan first. See my post on installing Duokan. Maybe that somehow then helps the installation of the Jailbreak. I really had no problems installing Jailbreak the first time I tried. I do have the UK 3g version and not the wifi version too.
