I hope somebody can help me with installation, as I am little bit confused...

"You need to jailbreak and install launchpad first" sounded difficult, as I have no idea what jailbreak means and what launchpad is. So I would like to choose the other method with kite which seems to be easier.

Unfortunatley I found different instructions. The first message in this thread says

unzip the contents of the installation ZIP file in the root directory of the volume the Kindle
The current zip file contains two folders, so I need to unzip both folders with their contents (and not the contents only) in the root directory?

You are supposed to copy the contents into a folder "test" (sorry, still didn't manage to come up with a clever storage point...) in your document partition. Except for the contents of the "launchpad" subfolder, which you can copy into the launchpad config folder on your document partition if you want to use this integration.
I also looked into installation guide in the wiki and there it is again different:
Quote:
Create a folder named "customupdates" on the Kindle and copy the zip file into it.
Firstly download the latest release from the Download page.
Unzip it into you Kindle 3, DX or 2.
If you want you can delete the "launchpad" folder.
So what is currently the right way to install kindlepdfviewer with kite?
Should there be a kindlepdfviewer folder in the root directory? Or in /documents/test? Or in /customupdates?
Or should I put the 17 files (which are in the kindlepdfviewer folder of the zip file) directly in any of the mentioned folders?
