Question
PW3, FW 5.16.2.1.1, first jailbreak of this device - has it been successful?

If ;log mrpi attempts to install something, and there is a KUAL launcher visible even though there is no option to disable/rename OTA updates which I see others mention, is this enough to confirm the procedure has been successful?

I am unsure as although the Winterbreak screen told me to proceed to the hotfix which seemed to work, and ;log mrpi now responds (it did not after my first attempt, even though KUAL was as I describe below and the button for MRPI in KUAL responded, and during which my firmware upgraded to 5.16.2.1.1) I did not receive a success message at the end instead a series of messages and screeens including one with a bomb:

Code:
****MKK KEYS ****

* KUALBooklet 18b218e I *
Running install.sh...
Failed to remount rootfs RO, waiting...
Success. :)

Code:
* KUALBooklet 18b218e I *
Running install.sh...
Really failed to remount rootfs RO -_-
A reboot would be recommended

Code:
Done, restarting UI...
As there was no success message on the screen with the Amazon logo does this mean something has gone wrong?

Like I mentioned KUAL opens with a menu containing KUAL, Helper, and x Quit, and inside the KUAL submenu there is just an option Sort menu 123, and inside the Helper submenu just Install MR Packages, with no option for rename or OTA often mentioned in this thread, unless I should only see that if this was not the first jailbreak on this device?

I have gone through the jailbreak several times, including a double reset, and the result is the same whether I use KUAL and MRPI from the linked guide or directly from NiLuJe and Marek, and whether I install Update_KUALBooklet_hotfix_*_install.bin or not (which is referenced in the guide but not provided so I used NiLuJe's version).

Is what I describe expected or is there something else I need to do before I try to install KUAL+ etc.?
