I had a bricked kinde. I've reflashed into it everything (kernel, rootfs, mmc0) from a backup I had from a different kindle.
Now it starts, but the old files still show up in the kindle's menu, even if the exported partition was formatted).
I've connected a serial console to it, but for some reason the TX is not working (probably for the level shifter i've used wrong diodes), but the txt does.
I've tried to update with this kernel, so I can export the whole partition, but I'm getting the following error:
*** CHECKING /mnt-us/update_kindle_3.3_custom_kernel_k3w.bin ***
INFO:do_unbundle: filename=/mnt-us/update_kindle_3.3_custom_kernel_k3w.bin, new_file=0x0000db70
ERROR:OTA bundles are not supported.ERROR:do_unbundle: parse_sysbundle_header failed with error code 22
ERROR:Could not unbundle /mnt-us/update_kindle_3.3_custom_kernel_k3w.bin
INFO:removing /mnt-us/update_kindle_3.3_custom_kernel_k3w.bin

Any idea why ? What's the right procedure to install this kernel ?
