A long story, but I have essentially all-but-bricked my reader.

While that was going on I ended up finding out how to restore the reader to original factory - even the OS, I think.
I decided to see how the MacOS Kobo app would work as opposed to WiFi.
I had trouble authenticating that app and after naming dozens and dozens of streetlights, boats, and busses - at some point I said "Yeah that's enough" and didn't eject the device properly.
Now when I reboot it it is never seen as a USB device in the Mac - also it shows just a white screen while the led blinks.
I tried to redo the reboot and touch the 2 lower corners strategy (it worked before I messed up the disk).
Now I have taken the device apart - and have the SD Card.
I see that there are multiple partitions.
If I could get a raw disk image with all the partitions and instructions for finding and changing the serial number I could dd the image onto my SDCard and get things rolling again.
I'd much appreciate anybody's help they can give!
Here are the partitions I am seeing (copied to a 32GB card)
/dev/disk3 (internal, physical):
#: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER
0: FDisk_partition_scheme *31.9 GB disk3
1: Linux 268.4 MB disk3s1
2: Linux 268.4 MB disk3s2
3: DOS_FAT_32 KOBOeReader 3.4 GB disk3s3

I think you're in the wrong thread for this because it's not kobopatch-related. If you go to the end of the
Kobo H2O: Need SD Image thread you may be able to get what you need.
Sorry I can't be more specific but it's not something I've ever needed to do myself.
