Only the OTA handler included with the Amazon system can access the full file system of an un-jailbroken Kindle.
Using the OTA handler is only possible if you can sign the image file using Amazon's private key.
If you ever get past that 'speed bump' in the plan, let us know because if you can get it to accept a several hundred megabyte file, you can get it to accept our several hundred byte jail break file.

Note: There are two (2) OTA handlers, we only install our public key in the one which can not replace the system image.
