Thanks! ok, great almost there... so correct me if I'm wrong... the process would be...
-upgrade firmware manually to get onto 5.6.1.1
-install hotfix 1.16.N from https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...postcount=1597

I'm not sure of what a package is exactly in this context. Would that be KUAL? KOReader? The screensaver hack? Something else? or basically I just need to reinstall all the programs/apps I was using with the jailbreak?
