Hacking Kubrick, need source

[Frotz]

I was playing around with Kubrick and ultimately didn't use it because I'd rather use the 5.0.x firmware for the Kindle Touch. I figured that there might not be enough room in a DVD image to hold all possible firmwares. I then started thinking why not dispose with the DVD image and make something that requires a thumbdrive. That way all the firmware images can be offered. I opened up Kubrick and I think I understand how to put an image back together, but what I really need is to modify the Kubrick program itself. Is the source code available in such a form that I can readily recompile it into the kubrick.jar file?

@Frotz:
If all you need is (multiple) K5 images, you probably only need to create appropriate subfolders in the resources/devices, and to edit the DebrickConfiguration.java to account for them. As a bonus, you probably can re-use the existing fastboot.sfs and tts.tar.lzma files, something along these lines:

### assuming that you're in the kubrick/resources/devices directory:
mkdir k5_5.0
cd k5_5.0
ln -s ../k5/tts.tar.lzma .
# all that is left to do is to provide the fastboot.sfs and main_partition.tar.lzma file.

EDIT:
Ah... no, you can't reuse the fastboot.sfs, because it contains the main kernel, too. While you can reuse the diags kernel and partition inside the fastboot.sfs, you will still need to provide the correct main kernel.
