I think I killed the "bad flash packet". I zeroed out all the "user" partitions and let the kindle rebuild them on next bootup. I copied the main and diag partitions, and main and diag linux kernels, from my good k4nt to my bricked k4nt. All worked but registration with amazon. After an amazon tech reassociated my serial number and wifi MAC address, registration worked and all is well. Now that it is upgraded to 4.0.1, I have not seen any more MMC corruption problems.

I am working on a tool to automate and simplify this repair procedure. Read more here:
