Hi everyone,

I'm trying to jailbreak my PW2 5.6.5 following these instructions. I get the jailbreak sucess message after visiting the website (repeated several times in a row) and running ;fc-cache. Then I replug the usb cable and copy the hotfix, but as soon as I unmount my Kindle in Linux it pops the Update Error message saying an invalid update file was uploaded. I have tried it with airplane mode on, off, after sucessfully jailbreaking 3 times in a row (from the first and also from china address). Jb file is copyied to root, the same place where I am copying the update.bin, but the latter keeps being deleted as soon as I unmount. I didn't have the opportunity to go to settings and choose Update my kindle. What am I missing?
