Well, I got a DX kindle, and I want to jailbreak it, but I have a problem already. And I'm really struggling to find a solution of that problem:
Every time I try to upload any .bin files or .pdf files to documents folder I'm getting read/write error on windows(watch this screenshot):

On linux I have different behaviour:
When I'm trying to
Code:
cp Update_kindle_2.5.8_B005.bin usbstick/
It shows up in the root of kindle, but after a few seconds device dissapears(without unmount) and then reappears with other identificator(e.g. device name was /dev/sdc and then it's reappears with /dev/sdd):
Code:
ls -lh usbstick
total 24K
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Jan 1 1980 audible
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Jan 1 1980 documents
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Jan 1 1980 music
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4.0K Jan 1 1980 system
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Mar 23 01:13 'System Volume Information'
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 12 Mar 27 01:26 test.txt
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 0 Mar 23 01:23 Update_kindle_2.5.8_B005.bin
The size of file with kindle update package is becoming 0 and I really don't know what I should do with that! I tried to drop files with the same size and extension
Code:
fallocate -l 24M test.txt
cp test.txt usbstick
Code:
ls -lh usbstick
total 49M

drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Mar 23 01:13 'System Volume Information'
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 24M Mar 27 01:42 test.bin
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 24M Mar 27 01:37 test.txt
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 0 Mar 23 01:23 Update_kindle_2.5.8_B005.bin
Also I've got an image of that partition and mounted it. Then I dropped there Update package and it seems like problem is not with a filesystem.
Does Kindle software deletes Update package and files like that or there's another problem? Please, help me, beacuse I really don't know what to do. Tell me how to hack that tough thing. I want to use it ):
I'll appreciate any help. If you need more info, let me know.
Kindle version: Kindle 2.5.3
Serial Number: B005*
Also, sorry for bad English. It's not my main language
