Just as a check to see if everything is in place: before running ./4.3.8966.sh in step 4 of the instructions, try running the following command:

Code:

unzip -t 4.3.8966_source/kobo-update-4.3.8966.zip KoboRoot.tgz

If everything is okay it should give this result:

Code:

Archive:  4.3.8966_source/kobo-update-4.3.8966.zip
    testing: KoboRoot.tgz             OK
No errors detected in 4.3.8966_source/kobo-update-4.3.8966.zip for the 1 file tested.

(Edit: I'll incorporate this check into the sh script in the future, so it will give a more useful error message if the file is missing or damaged.)
