@Ken Maltby I've tried "SDFormatter" already it simply gives an error that Disk is Read Only, yes I've tried to put little level up & down but does nothing... it is dead apparently
... and it a good brand Sandisk... and dies so easily

So that part of the instruction is wrong... so what do you see after a successful installation of the last patch?

OK, I've learned this now...

Only after "fix-udev-tgz.zip" a really fast update process, the last one simply reboots and nothing happens, apparently...

The Aura HD not powers on if you press the light button togheter with the Power button if it this I've to do... it seems impossible!
Pressing the button after simply does nothing s*itty Kobo firmware loads as usual...

I'm unsure if the Kobo sees the SD card too as it shows no icon...

I'm using "Flash Drive Image Writer" per Angor instruction, I've tried to mount it using the internal reader of my Sony VAIO and an external card reader... nothing changes.

The Aura connected via USB shows no SD card on windows, it should?

Thanks!
In your opinion it is possible to create a real boot loader for Kobo without doing strange button sequences? For example modifying "Kobo Start Menu"?
