One-Click Install Packages for KOReader & Plato

[ew0kk]

Hello thanks for the script, I'm trying to use it but I get this error, I looked in the forum but nothing came up. Is there a thread on FAQs or trouble shooting?

I'm on Win11 if that makes any difference, thanks:

Couldn't find a Kobo eReader volume! Is one actually mounted?
* Nothing to do! Press Enter to exit:

I actually have the same error message today as well. I can see the eReader mounted in Windows 11 with the .kobo directories etc, but something is probably off. Running firmware 4.44.23552

In the script I see the detection checks for the name like this:

$KOBO_MOUNTPOINT=Get-Disk | Where BusType -eq USB | Get-Partition | Get-Volume | Where FileSystemLabel -eq KOBOeReader

The reader is mounted in Windows as just "eReader" though, see attachment. I'll give it a try with changing the name of the volume the script searches for, as the .kobo directory is present so I assume it might work.

I just hit the 5 minutes window, so replying to myself a lot: It worked. After unmounting/ejecting the ereader rebooted and presented me with installed kfmon and KOreader/Plato.

I simply changed the detection to look for the string eReader:

$KOBO_MOUNTPOINT=Get-Disk | Where BusType -eq USB | Get-Partition | Get-Volume | Where FileSystemLabel -eq eReader

Might be an option for newer builds of the reader or so?

Thanks for the script

Make that something like:

Where-Object { $_.FileSystemLabel -in @('eReader', 'KOBOeReader') }

(Don't quote me on the exact syntax.)

Yeah, something like that, or maybe there is something like an "endsWith" in PowerShell?

I just wanted to show that it actually worked for me like this with the reader having this shorter name, so the maintainer could maybe work from there and add this to the "official" detection.

Hi,

I have used this Installer on my old Kobo, sadly it was stolen out of my car.
No I have received a new one today and I am not able to get the NckelMenu working again.
It is not shown up in the lower MenuBar.

Any Ideas, what to try?

Thank you
Ingo

You may want to download the 0.6.0 version of NickelMenu from the Nickelmenu site.
