PocketBook is full of this stuff, it's the 90s nostalgia over there, none of this modern amazon/apple fascism.

Not sure if it's possible, can you keep the device alive (prevent sleep) while there's activity in the services?

Disable timed shutdown in power menu, but keep wifi or bt on when USB is plugged in. If sessions are in place (shell with a terminal, tcp connections), wifi never suspends, and whole reader stays alive in turn. Not a good idea to do without USB, as it will kill battery charge in 2 days or so.

This one is a quality-of-life convenience, can you create /mnt/ext1/.ssh if it doesn't exist? Also, I'm trying to get dropbear to accept pubkey authentication to no avail

It might either not like the symlink, or the silly permissions on the fat partition. To figure out what dropbear doesn't like, just launch another instance via
/mnt/secure/bin/dropbear -F -p 33 -m -B -Y somepassword -H /mnt/secure in foreground, and it should jabber about what it does not like.

scp works fine, not sftp (probably a dropbar limitation). If it's not too complicated, can you include rsync as well?

Done.

Generally in PBTerm /mnt/secure/su command works, any idea why /bin/sh doesn't return control?

Not sure what you mean.
