A short script to re-package existing packages

[knc1]

A little script that contains a table of things to re-package.
The table is populated for KOA2-beta things as a worked/working example.

Crap, forgot about that!

Quick question: are any of the extra device IDs you pass currently missing from git master?

Yes, look at the long list of un-defineds coplate is passing. The script is mine, the argument list is coplate's. I have kept the serial numbers table up to date so far. You might as well wait until this weekend if you can, there have already been changes to that which I haven't pushed to you yet. I do have the help of a few people and someone sent me a new Oasis last Monday, so progress is slowly being made. In addition to going from 4 partitions to 7 partitions there have been a lot of changes to the system files. "Diags" is gone as a separate system, but it is still dual boot. All looks to be in preparation for Kindle/Android.

Ah, right, I see a missed the Oasis 2 release, joy. -_-".

AFAIR, -s 0 -t 18446744073709551615 (i.e., UINT64_MAX) should be the default, no need to specify them.

I'll see what you've all prepared this week-end, in the meantime, I can probably whip up a couple of the usual binary builds of KindleTool if need be (everything not arm, that is).

And while we're on the subject, can we still run Kindlets and/or Booklets on this, or should I not even bother adding the new device IDs to KUAL?

Kindlets are dead and gone. They died with the first Oasis or maybe the Voyage. But I would put the models in, since Kindlet support is by model/firmware version combination. It was only the 5.9.2 firmware (PW3 and newer) that obfuscates booklet. And according to coplate, who has looked, differently for each model. I have not conditional-ized the bridge support of the kindlet support in the bridge code. Horrible sentence, must still be asleep. All of the IS_<model> stuff is gone from the bridge code. Only supports AT_LEAST_54... But that will go away today, because it does no harm to put an empty file on the root of the file system. The model detection in the bridge code is now a full six character decode. Which is actually easier to read/follow. But it only sets the OSD messaging parameters. The KOA2 lack of a Diags partition is directly detected in the mount_root_rw function. It does not depend on the model detection. Yeah, KUAL is dead and gone. AcidWeb has a replacement that uses a server on localhost and is written in Python, no Amazon system dependencies.

Kindlets are dead and gone. And on the PW3 - 5.9.2 doesn't even have support to delete them. Developer keys and Kindlet jailbreak are going to be bridgelets RSN. Hmm... I don't like the look of that word, but something very close that implies a working fragment.
