Now I am trying to continue hacking my kindle but got a problem with USBNetwork. It says `failed to start sshd` when I toggle usbnet from KUAL menu.

I tried to apply hotfix from this thread: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...postcount=1597
It applied successfully, but didnt help

Next, I tried to remove usbnet using uninstaller from same archive, but it doesnt help: update file dissapears from Kindle and `update your kindle` option stays inactive in settings.

After all, i found this thread https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=274394
Apparantly, MrPI doesnt see USBNet package, i've put into mrpackages/ dir.

I still have working USBnet toggle in KUAL menu and telnet root access, but i hope for having wifi-ssh connection. My PC runs ArchLinux.

Any ideas on how to fix it? Thanks in advance.
Before fighting with this any more, update to the current firmware: 5.6.1.1

And then:

You are most likely using the wrong (out-of-date) USBnetworking package (does not have your model enabled).

Get the things you need from this thread's first post:
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=225030

Re-install all of:
KUAL, MrPI, USBnetworking
with the current packages above.

And if the re-installed MrPI refuses to install the package, post a copy of the MrPI log.
(Details in the thread you linked to.)

And if the re-installed USBnetworking will not start properly, unplug the USB cable (the most current version will put that reminder message on the screen).
You can read more about that in the thread you linked too.

(It doesn't help to just to find a thread, sometimes you have to read it also. )
