Fastboot help please

Hi everyone; I've been wanting to jailbreak my k touch (5.3.2.1) and am having a little bit of trouble getting it into fastboot mode.

I do the magic button which successfully changes to USB Download mode (I see i.MX50 in recovery mode from lsusb).

I then use sudo imx_usb fastboot path/fastboot.bin and it appears to work but there is no reaction from the Kindle. (I appended a log of the output below.) Can someone please help me figure out what's not working? Thank you

Code:
No "_" environment variable
argc == 2, argv == 0x7fff7826b438
base == 0x608220:./imx_usb
trailing slash == 0x608221:/imx_usb
conf_path == ./
config file <./imx_usb.conf>

kubrick (https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=206064) can just install a jailbreak on your firmware version. Very easy!

Thank you. I think that would be the simplest solution but I don't really have any media to make a live image on right now. I'd like to do it by just using my current linux if at all possible

Edit: eventually I want to mess around with the OS on the Kindle so I'd like to learn what is happening anyway; it's going to be uncomfortable to boot into Kubrick every time I mess something up.

Uncomfortable or not, you will be needing it.
I can tell.

Download the kubric image
Mount it so you can access the fils
Read the scripting to see how the wizard uses the tools

Yeah, get:
https://github.com/aditya3098/imx_usb_loader
For selecting the bootmode during usb downloader on linux.
Just run imx_tui, and then select fastboot.
https://github.com/aditya3098/Fastboot-Kindle

I guess you already have that.

Look at the original debricking thread. You will find links to download ssh+diags, main and both kernel images. Get them down and then flash diags kernel and ssh+diags. Then go N)->U)->Z)->X) in diags, wait 20 seconds and:

sudo ifconfig usb0 192.168.15.1 or something like that, then
ssh root@192.168.15.244
password: mario

Its all documented. You might want to transfer the pubdevkey.pem (search the forum) to your usb storage , and assuming you know your linux stuff, the usb drive is mounted at /mnt/us. Mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 at /dev/mmc, then move the pubdevkey.pem to /mnt/mmc/etc/uks.


Or just use kubrick if you're feeling :

Thanks mate, for whatever reason seeing your scripts brought it all together for me. I just flashed a diags+ssh and I've got root. Cheers!
