I haven't had any issues with it until now. It's a refurb, so I don't know what the last guy who owned it was doing with it.

I'm pretty new to this, so I wouldn't know how to check initrd or userstore integrity. userstore seems okay to me, at least superficially. I can still mount it and upload and read books.

The only issue is trying to update the device.

EDIT: Got it! Formatted the whole thing as FAT32 instead of FAT and the update actually worked.

Thanks for the help, NiLuJe.
