Adventures In Rooting: Running Jelly Bean On Last Year's Kindle Fire 41
concealment writes "Luckily, the Fire's low price and popularity relative to other Android tablets has made it a common target for Android's bustling open-source community, which has automated most of the sometimes-messy process of rooting and flashing your tablet. The Kindle Fire Utility boils the whole rooting process down to a couple of steps, and from there it's pretty easy to find pretty-stable Jelly Bean ROMs. A CyanogenMod-based version is actively maintained, but I prefer the older Hashcode ROM, which is very similar to the interface on the Nexus 7."

Rooting means something entirely different [urbandictionary.com] in Australia, I was a bit taken aback by the subject line when it scrolled past my screen.
