You don't need anything like what is described, although the method will be the same (if you can get a USBnetwork connection in the VM).

If you can't, we will do it another way.

The main hold-up here, is that I have to either find, or re-determine what offset into the eMMC device to copy.
(Which those directions do not include, they include everything except what you need.)

What you need to copy lies outside of the partitioned, file system, areas.

But I do have a PW-3, so I can work out the information (again) if I can't find it.

I can no longer use the excuse that my desktop computer with the Kindle stuff on it has its storage arrays off-line.
I finally got that fixed a couple of weeks ago, all 3Tbyte is on-line (in duplicate).

Amazon/Lab126 has only rarely varied the eMMC (flash storage) memory map.
But it is always possible that they might, without telling us about the change.

So I wrote a script to determine the location and size of the area(s) outside of the filesystem areas.

With less than an hour's worth of looking, I found it.
It is sitting on my PW-3.
Now that is one heck of a place for storing a script that determines the PW-3 memory map.

So if it rains tomorrow ......
