payload.bin is an ordinary update bundle. After a flashing of new kernel and installing of new upstart script (otafix.conf), payload.bin is copied to userstore partition. Device is rebooted and then payload.bin is applied by otafix.conf. payload.bin updates files in root partition.

Seriously, am I the only who knows about Yifan Lu's kindletool?
