So that overwrite on-device boot loader is the only choice if I want to save my half-bricked KT. But the thing is I am totally unfamiliar with linux, all I know is simple command like ls, cd, etc.
That link leads me to some source code files, I downloaded the Kindle_src_5.0.0_1370280073.tar.gz for KT, and there is a uboot_2009.08.tar.gz file in the zip file, but it's not a .img file. For what I know if boot into fastboot mode, the bootloader is a partition like kernel and diags, don't I need to input command like "fastboot.exe flash bootloader uboot.img" ? or just input "fashboot.exe flash bootloader uboot_2009.08.tar.gz"?
The u-boot wiki lists some linux commands for reference, I'm not sure if I can deal with it when it needs to do something more or less. Appreciate if I've been given more instructions on that  |
You need to
compile the u-boot binary first. See the link to the instructions that I posted earlier... Or wait for some kind soul to do that for you.
That said, before you - possibly - completely toast the device: have you thought about sending it back to Amazon and getting a replacement?
