I'm not aware of any K4 ever refusing to boot into diags, so I'm assuming PEBCAK here.
OS is fedora 22.

[aik@aik K4_JailBreak]$ cd /run/media/aik/Kindle/
[aik@aik Kindle]$ rm -rf .active-content-data/
[aik@aik Kindle]$ rm -rf .dropbox.device
[aik@aik Kindle]$ rm -rf *
[aik@aik Kindle]$ cd ~/Downloads/kindle/jailbreak/K4_JailBreak/
[aik@aik K4_JailBreak]$ cp -r data.tar.gz ENABLE_DIAGS diagnostic_logs/ /run/media/aik/Kindle/
[aik@aik K4_JailBreak]$ ls -la /run/media/aik/Kindle/
total 80
drwxr-xr-x. 3 aik aik 8192 Dec 23 11:37 .
drwxr-x---+ 7 root root 140 Dec 23 11:36 ..

After safe removal ("eject" in caja and waited till kindle switches back to its books menu) + restart:

[aik@aik K4_JailBreak]$ ls -la /run/media/aik/Kindle/

_Everything_ is back as it was before "rm", including all books. Where exactly is PEBCAK here? Thanks.
