At one point, when I was playing with telnet/FTP to my Kobo, I had to trigger the USB disconnect to get it to update properly -- going by memory here -- by writing a usb device add and then a usb device remove string to a file on the Kobo. Without that trigger, new content was not properly handled.
I found a similar issue when adding content directly to a uSD card which had already been used with my Kobo. When I replaced an existing file with a newer version, it turned out be be an excellent way to corrupt the database -- been there, done that, got the factory resets to show for it.
