Kindle 3 SSH access,Backup Help - Newbie Here

Hi

I just have got my Kindle 3 and i am intended to jailbreak,hack,tweak it

Firmware Version: Kindle 3.0.3, Kindle Wifi Version

Background:Since i have worked with servers(basic installation,tweaking etc) ,i have sufficient basic knowledge regarding SSH, Linux commands etc.

Wishes:
1.To install screen-saver and font hacks on kindle 3 and other hacks
2.To gain SSH access to my kindle 3
3.Install and try out duokan firmware
4.Other hacks and tweaks

I think 1,3 are easy ones as there are well documented guides available in mobileread itself

But before i jump in i need to take backups of all system files and settings etc of my kindle 3 and the steps to be taken if something bad happens while playing with kindle 3. Would be grateful if anyone can point me to a guide for this

And i am still confused regarding how to gain SSH access to my kindle 3, From my searching in this forum,found that it requires usbconnect hack . But no clear guide is available regarding that. So any assistance will be helpful

Would be grateful if any help is provided regarding these

Regards
Adithya
