removing sd card after flash?

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)

CM7 Help

So here is my situation
I got my NC in February and rooted it before updating to B&N 1.1
I would like to get it running CM7 but also be Dual Boot.
How should i go about this, do i need to Erase deregister and reroot? im sure this has been asked before somewhere in the back pages of this forum, any help or even a link to help would be great. i also don't want to lose my data.
Thanks

If you just want to try something new, use Rom Manager from the Market to backup your system to your sdcard. Then you can install CM7 using Rom Manager and restore what you have now when done. Dual booting is a little harder, what I used to do was make a bootable sdcard. Dualboot Phiremod / Honeycomb Image for SDcard is a good way to go, here is a link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1045018

[Q] going from rooted to stock to CM7?

Hey.
I've been rolling with a rooted version of 1.0.0 since right after NC came out, but I've begun getting boot issues, lagginess, and general slowness.
I want to go back to a fresh system and then install stable CM7 via emmc. What's the best way to go about doing this? I vaguely remember a way to wipe the system and go back to complete stock, but then will it auto download the OTA updates and troll me?
A little advice would be much appreciated.
You guys are the best.

I just did this over the weekend, so here are some links:

Just in case, if you want to run cm7 on the sd card:

There are flashable zips stock versions somewhere on the forum. The trick is to have a bootable sd card with cwm and the zips on it (instruction in the first link if you need them).
Good luck,

Remove dual-boot (go to CM7 only)

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.

way behind.. rooted 1.01 -> 1.3 + CM7???

I havent been able to keep up with NC development as much as I'd like, so after reading many directions and many posts I figured it'd be faster to tap the collective wisdom...
Current setup:: first gen nook, 1.01 rooted with autonooter. (no Clockwork)
Desired setup:: updated to 1.3 with root (i like the ability to jump from ereader to tablet) and CM7.1 on an SD card..
I was thinking of just 8 booting it to restore to stock, then upgrading to 1.3 and using manualnooter... Could I flash that update without the restore step?
then using [http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1000957] to get CM7 working..
Is that all correct? I just want a sanity check before i start flashing.

Running CM7 off uSD is a completely separated procedure with no interference with whatever on the internal memory.
You can start it off w/o waiting.

Just in case anyone else is curious. I created a CWM sd, loaded it with both the 1.01 stock flash and 1.2 stock flash.. flashed each. then copied 1.3 over per B&N directions, let that install. then finished up by booting again off the CWM disk and ran MN 4.5.18, 4.6.16
Now im stock rooted and very happy. Thanks to all the developers who created these wonderful tools.
