Whoa, you de-lidded the entire sdcard slot.

There were some pictures and discussions regarding the microsd in the first impressions thread as well

And some people in German ereader forum managed to remove the microsd card as well (from sister device Tolino Vision 6 which is also part of Rakuten/Kobo family of devices). https://forum.alles-ebook.de/thread/...0020#post90020 (unfortunately it seems you have to register to see this content)

However, one of those users also damaged their device in the process.

My Libra 2 also had a few reboots but I hope this is a software issue (happened in the past with sickel / watchdog too - the firmware checks for hangs and reboots if it thinks there is a problem) and so far it only happened when hacking around in the telnet shell, not during normal use. So I just hope its a case of the software watchdog being a little trigger happy, it's happened before in older firmwares
