Oh and the first 6 of the serial number.
Well played
Serial: 9017 22

knc1: "Recognized" meaning that the kindle doesn't show with either $lsblk, $usb-devices, or #lsusb from within linux (installed/non-vm kubuntu 14.4).

I am unfamiliar with "system poke the flag file". I did read that placing a DO_FACTORY_RESTORE file would do just that, but would appreciate a little more info on sending it to the kindle (if it's indeed possible).

Thanks again, I really appreciate the help.
