If you are worried about needing to do a factory reset, then take a copy of the book partition before starting. Copy everything. Then, if you do get into trouble, you can do a factory reset and restore these files afterwards and you are back were you started.
So if something goes wrong I can just do a factory reset, and then replace the .adobe..., .kobo, .kobo-images (that is first delete than copy) and add all the book files and font)? Would it be safer to preserve the root files and replace contents (including dictionaries)? I've never tried that - when replacing a dictionary I first renamed the original one as advised elsewhere: is that an unnecessary step?
