Any thoughts?

Running dmesg in linux shows the kobo connectecting as

This does not look good.
I understand that factory resetting with the sd did not work. Maybe you could do a test, whether the sd card is recognized at all, by making the autoscript.sh do something simple like creating a file on the sd. If it works, you have some means to communicate with the device and try to find some solution.
Once the device is certainly powered on give it some time, insert the sd, and see whether it is recognized at all.
