Flyboy320, thank you for the link. I used Image Writer and it was successful (can read the files directly from the sd card on my Ubuntu box), but the kobo doesn't seem to recognize the internal sd card at all. It behaves the same whether it's in or I take it out: static "Kobo Read On" screen. Only the blue LED tells me it's still alive. This behavior is the same when powered via USB, too. The computer doesn't recognized that it's plugged in either.
Any thoughts?
Thank you again for the image. Is there a way to use it to boot from the external SD slot?
