Dear Knc1,

If I have already JB my kindle, may I upgrade the firmware to 5.8.8?

3) You skipped the part where all packages have to be re-installed after an update (like, in, read the step #8 that you never reached) when deciding that the jailbreak was broken by the update.

4) You installed 5.8.8 firmware version that can not be jailbroken (try reading the top line of the top post).

Easy fix (maybe):
Re-install KUAL,
Re-install MrPi,
Re-run the "hotfix" (note: you have to run it from /mrpackages now that you are running a customer firmware build.

But due to the things you skipped when you jail broke it, the above may not fix it, you may just have to buy a Kindle that isn't running 5.8.8 (and follow the directions this time).
