It's working now.
@Marek: Wow, excellent work.

Too bad.

Sorry about my complain, I was a little disappointed at first.
Thanks for the help and the hints though. I guess there are several tools and several ways to get around this.
I didn't want to buy more SD cards, so I used Win32DiskImager to write the image to an 8GB USB Stick.
Then, using parted, I removed the swap partition, changed units to sectors and recreated partition 3 ending at sector 1555607.
Interestingly, parted offered ext2 as partition type, but after creating the partition, it was linux-swap(v1), just like before. Anyway, I applied mkswap to make sure.
Then I plugged in my Transcend micro SD card via USB adapter and used dd to copy from the USB stick. It worked.
(dd if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/sda bs=512 count=15556608)
I'm new to the eReader world and initially started out buying a Aura HD for the sake of -- what a surprise -- reading.
But I'm also a Linux enthusiast and I was amazed to learn that I got a Linux system therein. After that I found this forum and this thread and I couldn't help but buying an additional Kobo Touch N905C for trying this out.
I just started using it, but I know already that it's just great, from the dual boot to the awesome window manager.
Awesome.
I also created a 2GB image of the debian directory in that image and used chroot with the gloScreen utilities to run awesome on my Aura HD. But all the images seem to be only black&white. Why is this, because of the missing kernel changes or a different image format?
I'd love to help developing, e.g. to make this work on the Aura HD, but I'm probably not up to such a project.
There's always so much knowledge I miss, about toolchains and putting such an installation together.
And still I even don't dare to open up my new Aura HD.
Compared to the Touch, that looks much more difficult.
