PW2 Not Readable or Mountable on Computer

Hey Everyone,

I'm currently trying to jailbreak a PW 2 following the instructions in this thread

So far I have ensured the correct FW version, reset the kindle, and entered demo mode, using the secret gesture to get through to the menus. When going into the ;demo menu to sideload the jailbreak in, however, I cannot connect the kindle to any computer. I've tried numerous different USB cables, a Mac, and a Windows computer, and nothing can recognize it. The drive is showing up in disk utility just as an unreadable drive.

Getting info prints the following

Code:
Volume type : Uninitialized

Is there any way get the kindle to mount so I can proceed with the hack? Has anyone else encountered this issue?

Thanks
