I had four sideloaded epubs (from the university of adelaide) which weren't showing up with the right covers. When I tried to fix them, they seemed to disappear from the device. Initially they were still showing in the carousel, but when I tried to open one, it crashed and reset the device. When it restarted, the four books had gone.
I tried re-adding one book from Calibre. All four reappeared. They all still have the wrong covers, but they all work and I am leaving well alone. Looks like it ought to be fixed fairly soon.

Something strange is going on indeed. I just put a sideloaded Terry Pratchett on my KT, but the cover wasn't properly full screen. I did open the book and then close it to see what the 'inside' looked like (so the KT marked the book as 'currently reading'). I deleted the book off the KT (using Calibre), and put a newly edited version back on in the same session. Disconnected, restart: no Terry Pratchett. I connected the KT to my computer and looked at the contents from the Finder (windows explorer on PC): there was a Terry Pratchett folder, but it was empty. So, the book was actually really deleted... Or so you'd think. When I copied the Pratchett book back over using Calibre again, then disconnected and restarted: there was the Terry Pratchett.. but ALSO two Robert Jordan books that I'd put on ages and ages (days) ago but had trouble with them being deleted but didn't bother putting them on again. Sheesh. Weird.
Edit to add: and the Pratchett book was not the first one I sideloaded after the trouble with the Jordan books... So it's extra strange that the Jordan books decided to turn up now, and not with previously sideloaded books.
