Installing Rescue Pack and CRPA is a must.

Usually not. That's why installing CRPA is so important.

Yep, I like this approach a lot but when there are too many bind-mounts, problems may occur, see the start of this thread.

localedef operates on /usr/lib/locale/locale-archive, therefore you have to copy the archive from Kindle to this path:
Code:
sudo cp locale-archive /usr/lib/locale/
localedef --list-archive
sudo localedef --add-to-archive /usr/lib/locale/sk_SK.utf8
Locale directory /usr/lib/locale/sk_SK.utf8/ has to exist beforehand.

Use native2ascii tool from Java SDK.

Yes, but the problem is they are signed.
You will have to sign the ACXs & install the mobileread key.
See
