Did you even read any of the information in this post or any of the others before you cracked open your device? Linux can only be booted from the external sd card reader. That is why your device won't boot when you put this image into the internal reader. All kobo's must have their original software inside. If you had read the readme that comes along with this it tells you how to get this up and running and how to change the boot properties of the kobo is so that you can choose Nicole, debian, or Android.

I would suggest in future you do a little more reading and a little less pointless work and maybe you won't waste a bunch of your time.
