Can someone point me in the right direction on how to do this or if this is even possible?
I want the normal stock rom on the emmc -- which I currently do.
I've tried and succeeded with verygreens genericsd image sd boot thread to make the Nook boot into CM7 properly, then had to uninstall, wipe, re-write and install MIUI. Currently at I'm at the latter stage.
I'd like to have CM7 boot when the mSD card is in. When I hold down the 'n' to get to the uboot menu I'd like to be able to choose MIUI from the sd card. The emmc I'd like to keep as is, as the stock rom.
Is what I'm trying to do possible? Where should I be looking, what needs to be done?
Thanks!

I'm currently running cm7 on my nook and am a flashaholic on my evo 4g. Anyhoo.... I just downloaded nookiecomb 0.4.13 and the instructions say to remove sd card after flash. Once I remove it can I put it back in? Or do I have to format the card afterwards? I really don't want to format it but really want to try a honeycomb type of rom. Also what's the smoothest and most stable honeycomb rom available? I'm finally getting this nook thing down but hitting some bumps along the way. Thanks in advance,
Dave

If it's the SD card with the original Clockwork recovery image burned on it, take it out and put it away incase you ever get into real trouble. After you do that put in a fresh card, download Rom Manager and flash Clockwork Recovery to your new SD card. Once you have Clockwork on your daily card you can Nand and flash as usual..... Beware with the Honeycomb roms though, I was reading that they wipe out clockwork recovery when you flash them to EMMC (hence why I say to put away your original recovery sd for emergency use....the nook gives priority to booting from the SD slot over internal memory making it nearly impossible to brick)
I am relatively new to this but I have tried a few versions of phiremod.
I actually had the dual boot Phiremod with HC running on my Nook for a week and loved it and want to go back.
My current situation:
I did an emmc bootable HC and now I am stuck. I have no stock boot, I have Clockworkmod 3.0.2.8 on an 8gb SD.
I tried to flash to the dual boot Phiremod and it didnt work. I am not sure what i need to do to prep for it.
Do I go back to stock first? If so, how?
When I tried to flash it, I just keep booting into CWM.
What I am looking for is someone who can explain to me how to get back to the basics and then get a version of HC on my nook. I loved 3.1 that I had even though it was just a little glitchy here and there.
Does it boot up to HC without the sd card inserted? If you are trying to run Phiremod off the sd card I would just redo the sd card. If you are trying to get back to stock use this thread. It will put you on 1.0.1 then once you boot up you can do a system update and it will take you to 1.2.

Hi all,
After using stock for a bit, I realized I will never, ever need it. I've currently got the SD dual-boot going from ikingblack's instructions and have a CWM backup from my stock install, so if I need to go back I can.
How could I remove dual-boot and go CM7 only?
PS Also, I ALWAYS boot into CWM with the SD card inserted. Not holding any buttons. Did I miss a step?
I'm wondering same thing. Been running dual boot with cm7 on 16 gig card for a week and found I like cm7 better then stock. Will it work if I make a CWM nandroid, flash just clockwork to emmc with a spare 8 gig card then install my 16 gig card with cm7 on it and boot into recovery and restore backup? Seems the easiest way without setting everything up again but not sure if it will work. Also never flashed recovery yet from rom manager, should I do that first? Appreciate any help.
Two options pop up in my head.
1. According to many members, Titanium Backup will save your work (apps and settings) or
2. Re-fresh installing CM7 on the uSD card.
Hey all,
I have my nook color on order and looking around on flea bay I see the following.
Triple Boot Rooted CM7 + Honeycomb Micro SD for the Nook Color
I would much rather find out how to do this myself, but can't see any guides etc relating to triple boot.
Any nudges in the right direction greatly appreciated.
No point in honeycomb... Just do a dual boot with CM if you want to keep stock

I agree CM7 / Honeycomb / Stock is fairly pointless. However a triple boot could be useful under some circumstances. E.g. Stock and a stable CM7 plus an experimental boot for later CM7 or trying out other ROM builds.
For a while I ran what was effectively a triple boot by setting up a dual boot CM7 / Stock) on the emmc plus the ability to run a third ROM off the SD card. There are good instructions on how to dual boot the emmc. One can either have two boot images to select or create new system/data partitions to hold say Stock. There are zips that will do the basic partitioning and ROM copying work.
Having said that I did revert to a simpler system with one ROM on the emmc as I found I was not using Stock anyway and it was difficult to remember the sequences to do the various boots. Trying out initial ICS (he said hopefully) would be another reason for more flexible booting in the future.
Thanks much for the replies.
You hit my thought dead on.
What I was thinking of using this for is ..
1) leave stock rom alone
2) have SD card CM7
3) have another SD card bootable to 'test' (read ICS)...
or eMMC dual boot and a bootable SD card
3) have another SD card bootable to 'test' (read ICS)...

That is no longer a triple boot as you are talking about 2 separate cards.....
Frankly, you do not want to really do a true triple boot for ICS anyway as it means you will need to have 3 sets of all of your apps & settings.
I had made a dual boot sd card running Cyanogenmod 7.1 but when my nook started giving the message that xx has stopped responding. I tried to modify my SD to upgrade to Cyanogenmod 7.2. Unfortunately I ended up flashing CM 7.2 to the emmc and lost the stock nook app. I can't figure out how to get to a recovery menu to flash a stock nook rom back to the machine so I can start back with a dual boot sd card. Any help is much appreciated. Unfortunately, I knew just enough about rooting to be dangerous.

Easiest way get stock back is to flash it with a CWM bootable card. See my tips thread linked in my signature and look at item A15.
