No, because it's a terrible idea, here's my TED talk why.

That's probably because you're already running the latest stable (2023.04 at the time of writing).

NiLuJe,

Thank you for this, I just got Kobo Elipsa 2E, and tried your method, the automated way for Plato and KOreader install and the installer script worked perfectly, device rebooted, but both Plato and KOReader crash upon opening, and device reboots.

NickelMenu shows up, I can see both Plato and KOReader there, but if I try to start it just will not load.

Any pointers you may have would be appreciated, if there isn't a way to get it to work, what is the best way to uninstall? is it even possible?

Thank you for all this effort you've put into allowing us to be able to use KOReader on our devices, we all appreciate it.

Hi!

After connecting my Kobo Libra 2 to my computer and transfering a book through Calibre (as I had done several times before), Koreader crashed and I can't make it work again. I tried to reinstall it through the one-click app, but with no luck. Attached is the image of the error.

If there was a way to correct this without losing my koreader metadata, I'd really appreciate it!

Thanks,

Never mind, I figured it out: I had deleted a book that was in my favorites, and the reader was set to boot in the favorites page. So I guess it couldn't boot because it couldn't find one of the books. Putting it back in the e-reader solved it.

I'm waiting on Kobo to actually release the kernel sources. As an actual owner of the device, feel free to poke Kobo CS about that.

Are you on the latest stable or nightly?

IIRC, we used to handle that sanely (at least for last opened, maybe not favs), so I do consider that as a bug. A crash is not nice .

I'm in the latest stable version. I don't know how to report this then. What should I do?

And yeah, the crash scared me so much! hahahah

I don't know if this is hardware related, but more and more often, when I tap on the right side of the screen (Kobo Aura One) to turn the page of an epub, it goes 1 page backward (using the latest KoReader 2023.05). Any ideas?

Right click on the link and then "save link as" should do the trick.

I forgot to turn off the Kobo auto-update and now I need to reinstall everything because I get the generator error.
How can I do this if I used the One-klick method? I chose both Plato and KOReader. I have NickelMenu, too.
