Now, eject & unplug your Kindle, and go to [HOME] -> [MENU] > Settings -> [MENU] > Update Your Kindle. It should take a couple dozen of seconds.

Note that if you have KUAL set up and running, you're welcome to use our very own MR Package Installer, which may speed up the process if you're installing multiple things .
IMPORTANT: Remember that on FW >= 5.5.x, using MRPI is REQUIRED to install custom packages!
These instructions are really confusing me.

1. My Kindle Voyage doesn't have an "Update Your Kindle" option as described
2. I do have KUAL + MRPI installed, but the link doesn't explain how to use it to install the screen saver hack
3. What is the point of the Python file? Do I need that when I just want custom screensavers?

I put both of these in the "mrpackages" directory on my kindle, and nothing is done with them:

Code:
Update_linkss_0.24.N_install_pw2_kt2_kv_pw3_koa_kt3.bin
Update_python_0.14.N_install_pw2_kt2_kv_pw3_koa_kt3.bin
Advice would be appreciated!
