if you get a write error before 49% of writing on the stock 4GB sd card, it has failed and you need to get a new SD card. If you get an error at 49% you can ignore that and insert the SD back into the kobo and it should boot. That is because it is an 8GB image it will stop writing after 4GB. Remember there IS NO DATA AFTER 4GB in the image file! so it is safe to write to a 4GB or larger SD!
