Device: Pocketbook Inkpad color 3
Koreader crashing on launch

Hello, I have a pocketbook inkpad color 3 and I tried downloading koreader onto it but couldn't get it to work. I tried multiple times installing and re-installing the files, but everyitme I launch koreader from the apps menu it freezes for a while as it is loading and then crashes me into the menu screen of my device.

This is what the crash file says:

launching...

It's a scroll... It's a codex... It's KOReader!

Uh oh, something went awry... (Crash n°5: 01/10/24 @ 16:33:13)
Too many consecutive crashes, aborting . . .
!!!! ! !!!!

I'm not completely sure I am installing koreader correctly because in the guide in github it says: "Copy and merge both the applications and system directories into your PocketBook's USB root directory" and I am not sure what is meant with merge here. I tried to put the system file into different places if that makes a difference but I couldn't make it work.
