IIRC, it is all one big thread -
Start at the most recent end and scroll up - there are at least two file formats, you want the most recent one described.
(Of course, 5.8.9 might have changed the format of that file, but we don't know until someone tries.  )

I wished to write this earlier but I didn't have the time. So here it is:
Somehow, to my surprise, I actually managed to do that process. I now have all the device options unblocked again, which means the "recent format" of the file still works for 5.8.9. Unfortunately my happiness didn't last long because it's still not possible for me to use those KUAL functions and KOReader.
Two things I noticed:
1) When I said earlier that I was able to install the hotfix, I was wrong. What actually happened was the "destroying the package" message when I used mrpi, but I didn't notice and thought it had worked.
2) Apparently my device has some kind of kernel or iptables related problem. I noticed this first when following Panopticon's guide, in the step you're supposed to add some iptables rules. This is the exact message returned:
"FATAL: Module ip_tables not found.
iptables v1.4.15: can't initialize iptables table `filter': Table does not exist (do you need to insmod?)
Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded."
Later I noticed the same message in a KUAL log (which I can send you if you want).
If you want me to test anything else just say, knc1. I'll keep following the thread and stubbornly trying to get stuff to work.
@Antinoos: I didn't think of that before, but I tried now and it doesn't work. As soon as I unplug the USB cable I receive the Amazon error message and the file is deleted.
