You can not use the serial port on an Oasis, because if it has one, nobody has found it yet.
The best way?
Like any other touch screen device (other than the KOA2 *), boot it to the 'diags' system and use that menu to install the earlier firmware.
There is a chance that even 'diags' mode has 'downgrade protection' - but the only way to find out is to try it.
* The KOA2 does not have a "diags system", it has a "diags mode" - -
One of the reasons there is a lot of work to getting things to run on the KOA2.

OR
Just wait for a KUAL replacement to be released.
You know that will have to be among the first things created, since almost all of our add-ins require a launcher.
Note:
You also have the ability to run a "RUNME.sh" script (of your own creation) from the search bar command:
;log runme
I even started a thread for the purpose of collecting example runme.sh scripts for various purposes.
I haven't check recently, but I think I am the only person who has contributed any examples.
Without contributions from members here, the era of useful add-ins for the grayscale Kindles has come to an end with 5.9.x
