But, you can also try a factory reset. While the images I have should work as is, there have been reports of unusual problems after using them. A factory reset seems to fix them.
Note, you will probably have a problem doing a setup over WiFi. Early last year, Kobo had to remove support for the older security protocols that the older firmware uses. This means they cannot connect to Kobo's servers. You can use the Kobo desktop to do the setup. This will install the latest firmware. Or you can manually install firmware that does have the support. I recommend at least version 3.19

I used the image you gave me on the original SD card and it initially booted up fine, logged into someone's account. When I signed out of that account to sync my own account, it brought me back to the initial setup and the same issue happened. I tried this as well with a new sd card and had the same error.
When I try to connect to my computer to do the setup, it downloads an update and then it fails giving a "write error" message.
I've already tried the pinhole reset - is that different than a factory reset?
