Much to catch up on with lots of good suggestions. I'm going to try dnw first and then look at the other options.

Code:
end_request: I/O error, dev mmcblk0, sector 2765263
And this guy from U-Boot:
The I/O error and missing text make me think the internal Flash memory is failing, and that getting this thing booting via SD card is *probably* the best way to go. |
When I compared your terminal output with mine, I was concerned about the differences that I saw. (post #8) However, looking closer, I think the serial connection has just dropped some characters. It was your log that I saw the "init=uxrc". My log was correct. "init=/linuxrc". It just didn't exist because the rootfs was corrupt.
As you pointed out (I think), I don't think the error message with mmcblk0 is relevant, since that is the SD card. If the kobo worked correctly, I wouldn't need the SD card.

The kobo-upgrade-1.8.zip only has
fs.img
u-boot.bin-eb600em
uImage-eb600em
I have previously updated my kobo's flash with these items.
