Kind of the same boat here? I think? Got it today, switched it off and opened it up with the intention of preparing it and create an image backup while waiting for the bigger card to arrive.
At first I couldn't get the SD card to show up on Linux at all so I changed reader and then it did but I think something is weird with the partition table or something? The "lsblk" output was super wierd.
Anyway I plugged it back in the Kobo in order to check that it was all fine and the Kobo does not react. Shows up as "NXP Semiconductors SE Blank 6SLL" in "lsusb" and restarts if I hold the power button 15 seconds, so I'm assuming somehow the sd card got corrupted & it can't find the boot partition?
Anyway the kobo still takes charge so it's not fried (I checked with a usb power meter).
I'm usually pretty handy with circuits and the like but this has me utterly confused (although please note that this is my first kobo...).
