No. I used the KoboRoot.tgz file from the .zip file downloaded from the link used by an Aura when it upgraded (special thanks to Gerald Combs, the creator of Ethereal/Wireshark). The upgrades folder contains some code specific to the Aura and an attempt to upgrade using the full package resulted in a time to re-image the internal uSD card moment.

Using the KoboRoot.tgz file alone has worked on one Glo and one Aura HD. Unless you like being on the bleeding edge, waiting for the official release is likely to be a wiser choice.

Regards,
David
