Can you read from the Kono rootfs when connecting it over USB or something? You could have your script extract the blobs then? Copying rootfs to a tmpfs seems like it both would eat into boot time and grab a good chunk of memory.

It is fine for now, but indeed, I could create a mix task that:
- Connects to the Kobo through ssh
- Copies what is need in the firmware’s
rootfs_overlayon the host - Packages the firmware with the copied blobs
- Sends the firmware at the right place on the Kobo
- Deals with init script updates if any (I could package my init script as an elixir dep)
That is way more elegant than what I’m doing for now indeed 
Thanks for the suggestion! That would indeed make all this more “production ready” for folks that want to buy a Clara Colour to play with Nerves.
