Good luck.  |
Dear embryo
Thanks for a through report of your tests. I followed your advice and made my single boot SD to be for the double boot. I have the ubuntu installed on my Win 8 PC but did not understand what X means in your command. It took some time to figure out that it should be my name. Anyway surprisingly this worked and the image which did not work for dual boot now works with this modification. I am happy now because I made a lots of settings for various readers in this card before the dual boot thing came out.
But unfortunately the file name problem still remains. I am sure I did not have this problem when I was using this SD card for single boot. This is very strange. I connect the Android Glo to the PC and then the file names are restored. The names are still OK if I put the Glo to sleep and wake it up. But if I reboot it or run the Kobo original reader and come back to the Android Glo all the names are changed to ? charactors.
I bought this Kobo Glo in Japan, as these things are cheap there. This should be friendlier to Japanese charactors than yours is.
I do not believe I can figure out why this happens to me only. I will change all these Japanese characters to romanized Japanese ones. This is not a decent solution but I have to live with this.
Thanks for your help again.
