The OS is on a different partition than the one exported over USB, which is formatted as *FAT and only contains user data.

So there is another partition, that is hidden from gparted or similar... Would it become visible installing the USB network hack ? |

That hack needs to be installed on Kindle OS, not on computer host. And you stated that your Kindle is "completely unresponsive"...
