If you can, try to monitor what's happening over a shell. It should first build a tarball of the current install (which might take ~30s of heavy I/O), and then start downloading the new version (hopefully, in the form of a delta, so, not much data needed).

AFAICT, there's no feedback in case of error, which might be a tad confusing.
The download I got off the OTA Server was more than a Delta. The /.kobo/koreader/ota folder includes a "package.index" which looks pretty inclusive.

So far when I try the other two servers listed, I just get the "unavailable" message. Haven't tried them on my PC, but the first one worked ( on the second try) so I haven't had to.

I could update the AuraHD that I have Bluetooth on, as that can send the console to my PC, and see what I get. Don't expect having both radios on will do my battery much good.
Maybe later tonight.

Luck;
Ken
