The 4 files end up in a much smaller KoboRoot.tgz file which is then drag-dropped to the Kobo's /.kobo directory. The 4 patched files will be auto-replaced on the device after safe USB disconnection.

ahh ok, so these are the steps?
- Update what you want to patch
- download the new firmware
- run the thingy in the patch file
- grab the result
- put it in .kobo
- delete the firmware because its taking up space on your system

The patch system allows you to keep track of which patches you've selected to install. As I've not done that yet, ask for a sample of how to do it.
