Hi tshering, what do I do with your KSM08_ext_aura_one_02c.zip file?

I have KSM8 and koreader installed successfully and can see koreader when I boot into KSM. But I cannot launch it - the screen just flickers and does nothing when I poke koreader menu entry. Everything else in KSM seems just fine and I can start nickel no problem.

I tried copying koreader to .kobo and .adds but nothing seems to work :-(

TIA
If you did not yet change settings to the effect that KSM starts after each boot, do it now: select "tools" > "activate" > "set runmenu settings.msh" > "always".
As to the KSM08_ext_aura_one_02c.zip file, extract it on you PC, you will find the file KoboRoot.tgz. Start nickel, connect via usb to your pc and copy the KoboRoot.tgz file to .kobo. Safely eject the reader and disconnect it. Exit nickel. Next time you see the (KSM) home, there will be a new entry "handle update," select it and then select "install update" (do not select "install partial update" in this case).
As for Koreader it is better to choose the .adds directory. Did you take the most recent version of koreader? Maybe you should try the second link of post #303 (two above this post). Or maybe you take the latest nightly build from here http://build.koreader.rocks/download/nightly/.
