Thanks, that was it, I was trying to do this in the wrong place.

Well now I have a launcher tile that gets me to Sergey's Applications (I haven't added any of my own yet) and I have a Koreader tile that launches Giorgio's Koreader port. I think we have the best of both worlds working now.

New Idea I was thinking the on_start.sh might let me unmount /mnt/sd, to isolate the SD card from Kobo's processing without having to put the files on the SD card in hidden folders. I don't know how the sequence goes but Sergey has already worked that out, in part, for what he has. If it is after the processing would start, I still have the hidden folders to fall back on.

Luck;
Ken

PS; I changed the argument to point to the folders on my external SD card with my books. Any less trying to poke the right spot the better.
