Many thanks for your quick and helpful reply. I have a VOX with the continuous flashing light problem.
I got hold of another Kobo Vox that was working so I put the working sd card in the non-booting Vox and still got the flashing light.
There are a lot of BGA chips on the motherboard, so I am going to try and reflow the board and see what happens.
I shall try the dd command to copy the working sd card. I have a netbook that I can load Linux on to. It might be worth having a copy of the Vox OS. Especially if I fix the broken Vox.
