Just install all new hacks with MrPI (MobileRead Package Installer). As recommended by the jailbreak instructions.
Looks like i have big progress here.
=======================================
- I stay 5.7.4 firmware version install Kual, kual_helper from here https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=203326

- Install Koreader from here https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=209276 . Test most of formats work fine but have problem with big PDF files about 50 Mb (freeze).

- Intstall MobileRead Package Installer from here https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=251143 after that kindle stop delete *.bin installlers from mrpackages folder even from reboot kindle.
- Try to make 6 step from 1st post using mrpackages folder and Kual -> Helper+ -> Install MR Packages. But dont not sure thats work fine because i dont see DISABLE_OTA file in the root folder.

- Also i install Kindle Menu v. 1.7b from here https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=225860

- Install the package of programs and games from VlasovSoft from here http://wiki.vlasovsoft.net/doku.php?id=ru:coolreader http://pbchess.vlasovsoft.net/ru/

===========================================
I must been in the airplane mode all the time? There is a risk to take update from amazon and lose all installed software, hacks, etc?
