I have previously updated my kobo's flash with these items.
Its a yaffs filesystem, you can unpack it with unyaffs. Then run the sha256sum like i mentioned in the previous post. I unpacked it for you into a tarball. PM sent.

EDIT1: Hope I wasnt too late, reading last weeks follow ups now.

EDIT2: After catching up you can clear out mtdblock6 like this:
Code:
# Note the partition label of mtdblock6
blkid

# Unmount mtd device
umount /dev/mtdblock6

# Zero the device
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mtdblock6 bs=1M conv=fsync

# Then format it with:
# options:
# -c
#    Check the device for bad blocks before creating the file system. 
#
# -n volume-name
#    Sets the volume name (label) of the file system. The volume name can be up to 11 characters long. The default is no label. 
#
# -v
#    Verbose execution.
msdosfs -c -n LABEL-FROM-BLKID -v /dev/mtdblock6

# Mount it again
mount -t vfat -o iocharset=utf8 /dev/mtdblock6 /mnt/onboard
