I have kindle PW2.
It has firmware 5.3.2

I have Jailbroken it.

Till now I have done this much as stated:

3) Protecting Yourself From OTA Updates

a) Plug your Kindle into a computer, and create a folder in the root (the base level of the kindle in USB mode) with the name [userstore]/update.bin.tmp.partial/

b) Install KUAL, the Kindle Unified Application Launcher. This is necessary for most of what you can install with a jailbreak.

c) Once you have ensured KUAL is working correctly (if it isn't, try step 2.5), install Backdoorlock according to the "Installing using KUAL" section. Then, open KUAL, press Back Door Lock, and then press Lock the back door.

4) Preparing for the Future

a) Install the K5 Rescue Pack according to the instructions included in the README.txt inside the zip.

b) Install the MobileRead Package Installer. This will ensure that if you are updated to 5.6.1- on purpose or on accident- you will still be able to install things.

When I am putting the JBPatch install bin the root directory,the update kindle is greyed out.
