So, yeah. I am now in a position to test this again.

Utterly clean kindle 3.4

renamed zip to jar

put to device with mntroot rw
sftp://root@k/opt/amazon/ebook/lib/jbpatch.jar

edit /opt/amazon/ebook/bin/start.sh

to say:

## remove old bootstrap
## --  app=com.lab126.linux.arm.LuigiServiceProvider

## ++ new bootstrap
app=com.mobileread.ixtab.jbpatch.bootstrap.K3Startup
##

that's the complete steps correct?

thanks. I have the file in place just want to double check my work this time before another 4 hour hose down

EDIT:

what about??

## conditionally swap to old bootstrap
## 
if [ -n "${FRAMEWORK_CRASH_FILE}" ]; then
	app=com.lab126.linux.arm.LuigiServiceProvider
    echo "## NOTE: Framework is using default loader as crash detected. ##"
    echo "## To revert back to the jbpath loader, remove file: 

 ## touch /mnt/us/ENABLE_DIAGS  ?? Maybe?
${FRAMEWORK_CRASH_FILE} ##"
	else
## ++ new bootstrap
	app=com.mobileread.ixtab.jbpatch.bootstrap.K3Startup
##
fi

taking our lead from the header script bits..

DEBUG_CVM_CRASH_FILE=/mnt/us/DEBUG_CVM_CRASH
# Legacy file, will be removed shortly
DONT_RESTART_FRAMEWORK_FILE_OLD=/mnt/us/system/dont-restart-framework

which are the files that ultimately get created on total foof.
(and referenced as $FRAMEWORK_CRASH_FILE)

Cheers.
