@knc1: Thanks!
I'm confused again.....
I can connect to USB download mode, I just don't have the kernel, which is being taken care of... Serial is an option (I have Seaniko7's kernel installed), but I never figured it out and the kindle sat around for a while, until Hawhill played around with ATK and posted his results....
