Hello everyone!

Im also a noob to hacking such a stuff.
So Im hooking up in this thread.

I want to use a KT2 or Kindle 7. Generation with SerialNumber: 90C6...
The sad important fact it has FW 5.6.1.0.2
so I think this thread is what i need
and the difference to PW2 is only hardwarerelated.

I want to run kvncviewer on this device.
Is this possible?
By searching the forum i found no comment against it ....

so i need a little help, witch steps i have to do.
I think I have to do:
1.unmantle the device and solder a serial connection
2. getting root access like in this post rootaccess to Basic Kindle FW5.6.0
3. install the jailbreak-bin
4. install MRPI
5. install usbnetwork
6. install the kvncviewer (x11vnc_kindle)
7. acess the server over ssh and have fun with an external monitor

Or did I get something wrong, so far?

for Step 1:
I want to use a 'USB UART Adapter with CP2104' so i can use 1.8V logic level with an lab power adaptor and then I have to follow the "how-to-root-access"

------
but how to enter diag-mode, or is the KT2 automatical in diag mode if the bootsequence is interrupted?
and how to change in 'normal mode' after that, or is this done automatically by rebooting?
