my ereader can run emacs and nethack now fear me
so I made this possible using the armv7 minimal rootfs that Alpine provides, mounting a 2gb image and unzipping it in there, following some mobileread forum instructions to create a script to mount some Kobo linux stuff into Alpine so its accessible while chrooted, then chrooted into it and voila
yipee
heres the mobileread thread by NiMa that really helped me with setting it up:

their instructions involve sshing or telnetting into your Kobo but I did it all on device from Koreader's terminal plugin.
