My Kindle Touch bricked. Thanks to geekmaster and yifanlu, I'm able to boot into fastboot. I have compiled fastboot on my ArchLinux x64. It seems to be working well. It can recognize my Kindle Touch and do flash. However, when I try to do

Code:

./fastboot flash system mmcblk0p1.img

, it takes only 4 seconds to download and 8 seconds to flash, which is not possible to the 350MB image. As a result, the main partition is broken and not bootable.

However,

Code:

./fastboot erase system

takes half a minute, which is normal.

Could anyone tell me the right procedure to recover the main partition(mmcblk0p1) in fastboot?

Thanks!
