2. how I can have root access?
3. it whort it?
4. I found this, but there is a easy guide step by step?

Should be 4.26.16704 for Kobo Glo
That would be what I would usually recommend. But, I don't have a Mini, so I don't have direct experience with it. But, it works well with my Touch which has roughly the same specs.

I have epub; could I convert it to kepubs?
Yes, you can and it is easy. If you use calibre, you can use the KoboTouchExtended driver to transform the books to kepub when they are being sent. There are also plugins to use the full conversion stream, but, they are not generally needed. You can also use kepubify to do it. That is probably the only choice if you do not use calibre. See the signature of @geek1011's post for the link to kepubify and most of the other mentioned tools.

OK, thank you, but I usually read one book at one. I prefer to focus on ont thing
If you only have one or a few books on the device, then don't worry about the performance outside of reading. Reducing the number of books on the device is one of the few things you can do to improve performance.

But, I don't know how you do it. I know I couldn't. Most of us here are trying to work out how many books we can get on the device. And some are trying to work out how to carry every book in the world at their fingertips.
