One-Click Install Packages for KOReader & Plato - Page 78

The script doesn't download the zip package to be installed. It merely installs it. See the second post.

Sadly, NixOS does not run the install.sh script even then one of the OCP package files is present.

What I found on a VM running NixOS was that I need to install unzip (nix-env -i unzip) and bash (nix-env -i bash).

I then editing the shebang line at the start of the install.sh script to read:

Code:

#!/usr/bin/env bash

and saved it as installnx.sh.

When I then ran ./installnx.sh, it came back and told me no Kobo ereader was mounted. I didn't take it any further than that.

Code:

-rwxr-xr-x 1 david users     6578 Sep 19 17:44 installnx.sh
-rwxr-xr-x 1 david users     6570 Apr 17  2023 install.sh
-rw-r--r-- 1 david users 46005274 Sep 17 22:16 OCP-KOReader-v2024.07.zip

[david@nixos:~/Downloads/temp]$ ./installnx.sh
Couldn't find a Kobo eReader volume! Is one actually mounted?

Hello. Long time KOReader user here and I've just started running into issues. Somehow, my Kobo Libra 2 updated and I wasn't able to access NickelMenu/KoReader from the Kobo start page so I decided to install Koreader again following the steps on the first 2 posts.

I downloaded the first Koreader zip file and dragged those files to my connected Kobo and when I ejected, my Kobo restarted and had me choose a language, connect to wifi, and activate the Kobo. It wasn't a total factory reset as my ebooks were still on my Kobo Reader.

I then decided to follow the method in post 2 using my Macbook. However, when I ran the install.command script, I got an error saying "Couldn't find a Kobo eReader volume! Is one actually mounted?"

I've tried installing KFMon and Koreader separately by dragging the individual folders in each zip to my Kobo Reader and my reader keeps resetting each time I disconnect, asking me to choose a language, wifi, activate. So I'm unsure of what to do. Please help.
