Hotfix question

I'm new to the world of jailbreaking, and I successfully implemented the new WinterBreak on my KOA3. I may or may not have screwed up, though. Since the jailbreak was running fine, I deleted the hotfix "book" from my library since I didn't think I needed it after successfully installing it. Is it okay that I did that, or did I screw up? If I screwed up, what's the best way to fix it?

Just reinstall the hotfix , and the booklet should appear again . If you installed ranameOTABin then remember to restore ota binaries first so that you are able to install hotfix update.bin . Don't delete the booklet as it is used to restore JB after an OTA update

You are best to ask this question in the WinterBreak thread as more people will see your question and you'll have a better chance of an answer.

I actually did post there first, but I thought I'd cast my net wider by asking here as well. I'll copy Overtone1971's reply over there for completeness' sake.
