Ok, here's what I did (hoping it might help someone else too)

Factory reset, after that updated via wifi
(there's a renaming bit of the attached files because mobileread won't let me upload .tgz or .ini files, just rename them, no unzipping involved). And I still haven't found a way to remove the footer completely, any tips on that much appreciated.

1.

Hook up Glo to computer

Rename koboroot_telnet.zip to koboroot.tgz

Copy the file to the .kobo directory (make sure you have view hidden files on)

Remove USB cable, update will happen automagically


2.

Hook up Glo to computer

Rename koboroot_tweaks.zip to koboroot.tgz

Copy the file to the .kobo directory

Remove USB cable, update will happen automagically

3.

Rename kobotweaks.zip to kobotweaks.ini

Copy kobotweaks.ini to .kobo directory.

Power down your device, power up.

Click Library, and then the Home button again (the little house on the top left)

You should now have the tools menu on the bottom of your device. The kobotweaks.ini file is just a sample (I stole from somewhere), edit it as you like.
