As for USB within koreader, there is an open discussion about this on github

for kobo startmenu (ksm)
I dont know from where i got it anymore but i opened its instalation kit (6.9Mb) and find there "updatehistory.txt" that says: "+KSM08".
From your comment i see you mention ksm9. I will look into that.

for koreader:
I get this version : koreader-nightly-20180212 from here: https://github.com/koreader/koreader/releases
and this one i choose from the list:
koreader-kobo-arm-kobo-linux-gnueabihf-v2015.11-1523-g78284e1.zip 23.1 MB

I am not sure where should i look for these options you mention, but i did find something:
I connected to KOBO with usb, and open this file:
H:\.adds\kbmenu_user\confoptions\ksm_ini_options.t xt
i have 2 options for ksmAutoselectoption - i made [start_koreader] first
ksmAutoselectoption=start_koreader
ksmAutoselectoption=start_nickel (this was first originally)

H:\.adds\kbmenu_user\runsettings.txt
(original: runmenu=alternateMenu) i changed in runmenu=always

Navigate Start Menu when in KOBO and goto:
Configure- general - ksmAutoselectoption (choose) start_koreader

-----
something i must made right
I tested it a couple of times and it looks is booting in the right order now - first ksm and second (after 20s if untouched) koreader.
Thank you for suggestion mister cramoisi !
