Better instructions:
Need a computer running linux. VMWare/Virtualbox didn't pass through the kindle interface correctly.

I used a 16.04 live USB image, downloaded and compiled (make linux) https://github.com/TobiasWooldridge/Fastboot-Kindle, then used ./fastboot setvar bootmode main and ./fastboot reboot.

Nice find denydias.
Does this provide a possible JB approach? Assuming the unit can be made to enter fastboot mode, could we not simply set it to boot to diags and then reboot it? Once in diags it should be simple enough to insert the certificates.
