To clarify:

1. After i have downloaded both firmware and patched firmware, do i place the ZIP of the original firmware into the CRC folder of the patched firmware?
2. Ok so let's say i do place the zip into that folder and then load it all into the .kobo folder - how then do i install it? Do i just eject Kobo and it self-installs?
3. What do you do to 'enable patches'? Do i plug it in again and click on something?

Thanks!
-Place the ZIP of the firmware in the SRC folder of the patch.
-Enable your choice of tweaks in the YAML files in SRC (or instead add them to kobopatch.yaml in the root folder of the patch).
-Run the BAT file (if on Windows), which will create the patched firmware TGZ in the OUT folder.
-Connect Kobo Reader to your computer.
-Place the TGZ in the .KOBO folder of the Reader.
-Disconnect the Reader and give it a couple of minutes to reboot itself.
-Done!
