Hi knc1, I wasn't talking about the amazon front end/reader and other items they've implemented, I meant the rootfs including udev/iptables/glib and other linux utils etc that are in the source snapshot.

Mainly has anyone taken that source release such that you can boot far enough to then launch kual/koreader using only the items source is available for?

From what I can see most of the source appears to be available although I haven't found any projects that have wrapped it all together. If there are still items missng what are they? For example, does Kual/KOReader make use of libs on the kindle that are closed source?

Trying to get an idea as to how close the kindle is to being used with fully open software. I'm not worried about losing access to any proprietary features that amazon have implemented such as reading DRM'd ebooks, using their cloud service, syncing page etc

Cheers.
