The actual installation process is in the linux kernel, with private extensions that amazon does not give the source to.


If you are already on 5.8.10, then no version of FB02 packages will install. you can now only install official amazon packages, or look into the 'serial' method.
Thank you very much for the info!!! Your info may actually help me a lot to finish my jailbreak trick!
