I have a paperwhite 3 and am new to rooting/jailbreaking though I am very familiar with linux in general.
I did the jailbreak/rooting part and installed KUAL/MRI etc and got usbnetwork running. My laptop is debian 8.3 and the PW3 FW is 5.8.5. If I login via ssh over Wifi then it asks for a root password (and just enter does not work). Then I read that I have to change to password or put an ssh key in the root account without using wifi and then access it over wifi.
So once usbnetworking is running, the kindle shows up as usb0. After doing
ifconfig usb0 192.168.2.2
and
ssh 192.168.2.2 puts be directly into localhost (i.e. the laptop itself).
Also the IP address on usb0 doesn't seem to persist for more than a minute or two. No logs on dmesg.
Any help would be appreciated.
