So, two requests so far for the Kobo Touch database.... and a third one from me:

I get the error:
Quote:
calibre, version 0.9.2
ERROR: Error: Error communicating with device

database disk image is malformed

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "site-packages/calibre/gui2/device.py", line 85, in run
File "site-packages/calibre/gui2/device.py", line 468, in _books
File "site-packages/calibre/devices/kobo/driver.py", line 1578, in books
DatabaseError: database disk image is malformed
This error occurred both before and after about three million resets (about 3 hours, if not more, of continuous resets until my Kobo Touch finally switched on). Is there a replacement database available for the Touch? I can't seem to find it.

Update for some more info in the spoiler.
Spoiler:
A "verify disk" in the Disk Utility app (Mac) gave me an enless list of:

Quote:
Verifying volume “KOBOeReader”
Checking file systemo
Extend? no
/.kobo/images has entries after end of directory
Truncate? no
Extend? no
/.kobo/images has entries after end of directory
Truncate? no

and then finally at the end:

Quote:
Extend? no
/.kobo/images has entries after end of directory
Truncate? no
Extend? no
** Phase 3 - Checking for Orphan Clusters
Found orphan cluster(s)
Fix? no
Found 197 orphaned clusters
842 files, 1335540 KiB free (333885 clusters)
Error: This disk needs to be repaired. Click Repair Disk.
I wonder if I should dare let Disk Utility try...
