Since you were comparing the file dates with the 2.6.1 FW and they are corresponding in several cases, I guess you are dealing with the system partition. So this seems not to be the problem. That your on-animator.sh has a different date seems to indicate that you have KoboLauncher installed, this is not part of the problem.
Maybe a new image is the best idea now. For later analysis an image of your current sd might be interesting. But I guess you don't have the time and mood to create one.
For creating and writing flash images, I find these tools very convenient under Windows:

I am sorry to be not able to give you more help.

thanks tshering, you've helped enough already, please don't worry, and maybe I'll learn something :-)
Yes I did note the recovery partition, but was not copying from there. For what is worth, I did take an image of my sd card before either copying the rcS file or removing KoboRoot.tgz, so in the name of progress

I will be happy to share it if it is of any help to anyone (I am assuming that reflashing it on my device won't improve the situation).
Incidentally, my Mini's sd card has 4GB capacity.
If I reflash on the card, do I have to format it in any way, or will it simply be overwritten? The card will be overwritten.
