Ok, did
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mmcblk0p4 bs=4096 count=4
and several restarts (holding power button for 20 sec, 40 sec, etc) but it doesn't look like the partition is rebuilt. The metadata seems to still be there but I now the kindle exposes an empty partition:
fdisk -l /dev/sdb
Disk /dev/sdb: 1.4 GiB, 1465909248 bytes, 2863104 sectors
Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
and of course now I can't turn on SSH.
Is there something else I need to do to force a full restart?
