1) I was prompted to install busybox, I wasn't sure if I needed it, however later in the guide it becomes apparent that you do. When prompted to install busybox go ahead and do it.
2) To save time browse to the directory in question, press shift and right click to start a command prompt in that directory. it will save time trying to figure out path statements.
3) when you install android market you will need to log into an existing account or create one. Minor detail but if you have the account already make sure you have your log in information.
I installed youtube prior to the root however it crashed after the root, it was fixed with an uninstall and reinstall through android market. I don't know if the root caused the break, or possibly the android market install.
Market opener is a must, OTA rootkeeper is also a must if you want to keep the ability to stream video, a reboot of the kindle is required to switch between rooted and unrooted.
