dasmoover had a debian image that installed with an extension for yifanlu's touch menu. You could do apt-get to install stuff from the debian repo when chrooted to it.

I also used an arm BackTrack image that was larger than 2GB, so to fit it on vfat, I removed stuff from it I was not using, then copied its files to a 2GB image file. I played with nmap on the kindle a bit. I also had kismet working on the kindle. I also have a working "John the Ripper" that runs on the kindle, but a LOT slower than on a host PC.

But that was on the K3. On the K5, I only had success with chroot on diags. Both I and dasmoover had virtually bricked our K5's trying to do chroots from main (until I developed "select boot" to debrick my and dasmoover's K5s).
