Instead, I entered ";demo", manually went to "Update Registration Info", filled in the dummy values, manually went to "Sideload Content" and did "Done" without doing anything. Pressed "Exit". Did ";demo" again, did "Sideload Content" again, but this time, I continued with the instructions starting at creating the ".demo" folder. For me, the ".demo" folder was already there, with a file "boot.flag" in it, so I just put the jailbreak files next to it.
Other instructions identical, and it worked perfectly with this variation.

Hey, thank you so much, i have followed your instructions and almost got to the end - i get the jailbreak successfull message. But when i get to the post jailbreak to "Select Update Your Kindle to install the custom hotfix" i do that after copying the hotfix to the device, i restart the device and just end up exactly where everything started... i am back to the stock kindle start screen.
Since i really am a newbe in this jailbreaking thing - is that supposed to happen? or how do i know if i really jailbroken the device?
my goal is to install koreader - but how!?
cheers and thanks a lot!
