well, I was on 5.16 ...
installed jailbreak, installed hotfix, copied MRPI, and when trying to install KUAL apparently it updated. now says I'm 5.18.1, and I can't seem to install KUAL. *sigh*
What was I supposed to do to prevent an update at this stage? I was following the guide here:
https://kindlemodding.org/jailbreaki...ing-kual-mrpi/

I still see my hotfix book, along with several cvm_##### books.

edit...weirdly, the device just rebooted...and when I ran the ;log mrpi it installed something, then said application failed, restarting UI, and now I have KUAL? But I'm on 5.18.1?!

Edit again...well... I'm on 5.18.1, but was able to install Kobo, block future OTAs...apparently I'm still jailbroken? Slightly confused, but not complaining.
