Sorry, I don't understand what you are asking.

Edit: If you mean to replace the files in the original KoboRoot.tgz with the patched ones, then that might work, but it is probably not a good idea. Better to create a new KoboRoot.tgz that contains just the patched files, because the device will then update much faster. You might need to apply the patch a number of times until you have it customised to your liking, and it will take much longer if you install the whole original KoboRoot.tgz each time.
