Many Thanks to onemeila for this tools. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1951254&nocache=1

after acquiring a KFHD 7 Demo from Ebay, i used the following procedure to install a stock ROM using a Linux desktop.

requires factory cable, android-tools.rpm, and KFHD SRT download.

to get fastboot binary you need to install android-tools from the EPEL software repository, for details see https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL

open a terminal command line window on the Linux desktop. $ is the bash prompt and shouldn't be entered as part of the command.

install android-tools.

$ sudo yum install android-tools

unzip KFHD SRT you downloaded.

$ unzip Downloads/KFHD_SRTv1.3.5.zip

before connecting the Kindle, enter the following command.

$ fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar product

should show < waiting for device>

now connect a factory cable from the Kindle to the desktop, and power on the Kindle. It should show the Fastboot screen.

the terminal bash window should show ROM version of the Kindle:

product: Tate-###-##

now enter the following commands in the terminal bash window.

$ fastboot -i 0x1949 erase cache
$ fastboot -i 0x1949 erase userdata

$ fastboot -i 0x1949 flash recovery images/recovery.img
$ fastboot -i 0x1949 flash boot images/boot.img

for Restore-Factory Rooted with SuperSU.apk, enter this command.

$ fastboot -i 0x1949 flash system images/system.img

or for Restore-Factory Rooted with SuperSU.apk, Apex Launcher, and PlayStore, enter this command.

$ fastboot -i 0x1949 flash system images/system2.img

fastboot -i 0x1949 reboot

disconnect the Kindle and it may need a couple of reboots for the stock ROM to come up.

now that was simple. i hope this helps.
