I tried two sources:
- Kindle_src_5.3.7_2004410010.tar.gz and Kindle_src_3.0_515460094.tar.gz

What I did is untar all the files and then follow the guidelines given at the start of the thread.

the command "make mario_mx_defconfig" means there is a make file of the name mario_mx_defconfig. but this is not found. so i'm trying to find something equivalent.

if the make file is not delivered with the source code, possible to make one ourselves? Or if is it possible to post the content of mario_mx_defconfig here?
