Kobo error: database disk image is malformed
I have a new Kobo. I hooked it up with calibre 0.8.5 and had a problem with an ePub book rendering badly. Today I upgraded to 0.8.11, to make sure it wasn't a bug that had been fixed.
Now I can't even connect to it. I get the following log from calibre in debug mode:

========== end of log =========
It's a new device, I don't have a lot of data invested in it, so I can reformat it if that's the next step. I just don't know what went wrong. I've always quit calibre before unmounting the device and I've always unmounted it before unpluging it. I've even rebooted my computer, in case it was some I/O glitch. No change. The Borders app does work, though it does so little that it's not saying much.
What's this error message telling me? What's the next step?? Should I just be using an SD card, so that calibre doesn't have to manage the device's file system? Calibre's always worked so well on my Sony ...
