Smile KOReader After Following Initial Jailbreak Instructions

It took some digging to get KOReader and its prerequisites installed, so I’ll put the info here. All downloads besides renametobin and KOReader come from the NiLuJe's Snapshots thread.

MR Package Installer and KUAL
MR (mobileread) Package Installer
KUAL (Kindle Unified Application Launcher)

1) Extract mrpackages and extension folders from kual-mrinstaller-1.7.N-r18896.tar.xz to your Kindle’s root folder.
2) Extract Update_KUALBooklet_e3deabf_install.bin file from KUAL-e3deabf-20220213.tar.xz (coplate version of KUAL) to mrpackages folder which is in your Kindle’s root folder.
3) Eject you Kindle and open the search on it and type ;log mrpi (installs KUAL and MRInstaller).

renametobin
Prevents OTA updates from Amazon so you can make sure your Kindle doesn’t update which could blow away your jailbreak.
1) Extract renametobin folder from renameotabin.zip to the extensions folder of your Kindle.
2) Eject your Kindle and launch KUAL on it.
3) Tap “Rename OTA Binaries”, then tap “Rename” (Only tap “Restore” when you want to re-enable OTA updates or if you want manually update firmware via "Update Your Kindle" from Settings menu on Kindle)

KOReader
1) Extract extensions and koreader folders from koreader-kindlepw2-v2022.03.1.zip to Kindle’s root folder.
2) Eject your Kindle and launch KUAL on it.
3) Tap “KOReader” then tap “Start KOReader”.
4) Wait ~10 seconds for KORreader to open.
