If you use the desktop application to do the setup, when you get to the eject step, don't. Open the drive for the device and go to the ".kobo" directory. Then remove the files "KoboRoot.tgz" and "manifest.md5sum" and the directory "upgrade". When you disconnect, it will stay on whatever the factory reset firmware for the N905B Touch.

To skip the registration, you need to insert a row in the user table in the database. How to do this has been posted a lot of times. A search should find it.
