In my case with my AuraHD everything seemed to be working in Koreader, reading an .epub (I think it was one on a newly created hidden folder on my internal uSD card) and then after having gone to Nickel and powering off, it was not used for about 11 hours. When I tried to start it up again I got the Welcome to Kobo message and the requirement to register the device. My database having a zeroed out User, shouldn't have been asking me that, so I checked the database file in SQLite Browser and the User section was missing, much of the rest of the database looked normal, but I didn't examine it that closely. With my backup database it has been working as expected for most of yesterday and came on, after poweroff overnight, just now.

But I thought that the recent builds removed the Killall Nickel?
I just checked koreader_kobo.sh and there is no killing of anything. It also shows a crash.log to be at mnt/onboard but none there now, so the loading of the Koreader didn't produce a recordable error, In fact I don't remember any problem at that point.
