I followed the steps to serial jailbreak it but now I'm stuck on part 4: Hackary Stuff.
When I get into uboot and type in "bootm 0xE41000" , it always starts normally.
I can't get into diagnostic mode.
Do you see the booting text on your putty computer window?
If Not, the USB converter board interface is not working.

If the USB is OK, it looks to me you are failing to stop the boot process:

"Turn on your kindle, and watch the blank putty window you have open.
As soon as text starts appearing in the window, begin tapping keys on your keyboard.
Text will keep scrolling until the boot is interrupted

Hint: If you you miss the chance to interrupt, and your kindle starts normally, you can "restart" your kindle from its menus and try again"

Hope this helps
