After leaving my Kindle Touch booting for several days I think there is no luck for me there. I pulled the battery out and tested it. It's showing 4.17 volts so I don't think ordering a new one would help.
I'm still open to other suggestions, but after spending another hour reading old messages I think my next best option is to erase Partition 3 aka /var/local aka mmcblk0p3. Everything I've read says bad data here could create boot problems.
I can't get into diag mode so the easy options are not available, but the fastboot command doesn't seem to offer a partition erase option:

Unfortunately the partitions listed in the help don't follow the normal conventions I'm used to reading:
Quote:
partitions:
bootloader bootloader, 376KiB
prod overlaps bootloader, 120KiB
bist bist, 256KiB
userdata userdata, 5KiB
userpartition userpartition
mbr master boot record
kernel primary kernel
diags_kernel diags kernel
system main system (root) partition
diags secondary system (diags) partition
data user data

Anyone know which one is partition 3? Any opinion if this is a good next step?
