Better yet can anyone just break-it-down step by step in plain English instead of auto-translated from Russian?

I would very much appreciate it. (and please excuse my lack of understanding! )

Thanks!
  1. Download the zip file
  2. Expand the zip file
  3. Copy the contents of relevant subdir (2.6.1 or 2.8.1 based on which version you're running) to the directory that contains kpg.exe
  4. Edit the kpg.conf file as you see fit (i.e. adjust patch_enable and/or comment or uncomment the blocks you want)
  5. Run the kpg.exe. It will generate a KoboRoot.tgz.
  6. Mount the Kobo, copy the generated KoboRoot.tgz by the .exe to the .kobo directory, unmount the kobo and let it reboot.
  7. Profit!
