Hi all, total newbie to this scene, really enjoying koreader, but trying to get kterm and usbnetwork running on my Kindle Oasis KOA3 and running into problems.

I've gone through using WinterBreak, the hotfix, installed kual, renameotabin, and koreader.

After that, I installed kterm. All three versions I downloaded from the fabiszewski site just crash KUAL when I run them. Does anyone know if these don't work on KOA3? Is there something I need to install before kterm will run?

Second issue I seem to be having is that neither version of usbnetwork that I've tried (kindle-usbnetwork-0.57.N-k4.zip and kindle-usbnet-0.22.N-r19297.tar.xz) seem to work--or at least, when I turn off renameotabin and put the update on root, the device tells me that the 0.57 version is an invalid update file, and the .22 version just gets deleted--if I try to run an Update the kindle tells me I'm on the latest version, and when I plug it back into the PC the .bin has been deleted.

Any help would be appreciated, thank you!
