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.

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!

Nook color running Racks triple boot via micro SD card. Micro SD card is a Sandisk 8GB class 4 card.
Was previously running fine for many months with the 2/2/12 roms. I would run CM7 99% of the time and I would get a random reboot here and there, but otherwise very stable.
A couple days ago, I had a random crash and tried to reboot CM7. I could get passed the boot loader screen, but then would have a continuous boot loop with the blue android symbol.
Thinking something was corrupted with the rom, I booted to recovery and tried flashed the rom along with gapps. Still boot looping.
I booted to CM9, and was able to run. So I downloaded the latest CM7 and CM9 roms for Racks triple boot. Flashed both along with the gapps and CM9 fix. Apparently I got lucky and was able to boot into CM7.... once. Thinking everything was OK, I went on with my life and ran the new CM7 happily.
Now, a few days later, I've tried to reboot and I'm back at the same boot loop with the arrow spiraling around the a blue skateboarding android. Note, in that short time that I was running the newest Racks triple boot CM7 rom, I did not run a backup, so, I'm basically out of luck with recovery via CWM.
I've flashed the 2/2/12 rom as well as the latest rom to see if either would work again. nothing... still boot looping... for hours now.
Any suggestions other than wiping the SD clean and starting with a fresh install?
Thanks all.
~mike
Bump...
Been a bit, no responses yet. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,

I think the fresh install will help since you already tried partial reinstalling the roms.

Nook Color stuck in load screen
I have a nook with CM7 installed on it. was going return my nook to stock to give it to my little sister, but when i went to install the stock stuff back on it got stuck in a loop. It won't boot from an uSD card with clockwork on it and when I tried the 7 hard boot in a row trick, it didn't do anything. Did i really brick the thing? or can it be recovered?

You are in a recovery bootloop with no recovery installed. Go to my tips thread linked in my signature. Read item A8. You need to make and use my special bootable CWM SD (select the 'larger' image). Then if you want to return to stock, read item A15.
Hi, I'm a moron. I accidentally dragged some files that I meant to put in a different window onto my Nook's internal storage, and now I can't boot past "Read Forever"—it doesn't even continue to the N, shuts back down to black. It does this whether or not the SD card is in. Since I put CWM on it, now I can't restore from the 8 boot attempts, but I also can't seem to restore from anything else on the SD card.
I just erased everything on the card and put stock NC 1.2 on it, but I still have no luck booting up the NC to it.
How do I fix this? I can't even mount the NC on a computer to delete the files. (They were .just 2 zip files of CM10 and Google Apps.)
Hey, just to clarify, by "internal storage" I mean the same space where you can sideload files.

That still does not help me. You mean the drives that show up in windows explorer? That should not have caused any problem. Give use a bit more info. There must have been something else that happened.
If you go to my NC Tips thread linked in my signature, I have both bootable CWM SDs and a zip you can flash to put stock recovery back on internal memory so you can do the 8 failed boot. There are even instructions on how to do the 8 failed boot. See item A12.

Yeah, it was put into that space called "MyNook" (or such) where you can add other files. I also don't know what is going wrong, and I'm confused. I had just used uNooter and then CWM, and was going to load CM10 and GApps but I have not been able to boot beyond "Read Forever" since they were dragged to that internal drive.
I just put on the bootable CWM and a stock zip to the SD card but apparently now my Nook needs to charge before I can see if it works.

What is uNooter and where did you get it? I think that is your problem.

I found uNooter through the CyanogenMod wiki page for the NC. (I am not allowed to post URLs, apparently.) I followed that page and got as far as replacing the stock recovery, with everything working fine. Then I ran into issues with getting ADB to work with Terminal, so I never got CM10 or GApps onto the SD card. I dragged them to the internal storage and when I tried to reboot into the stock Nook, it didn't work. (I was able to reboot after rooting and replacing stock recovery before this, both with and without the SD card, there was only a problem after the files went onto the internal storage.)

It was not putting those files on internal memory that caused the issue. Something else happened with the uNooter after you installed it.
If my stock recovery zip and 8 failed boot does not fix it, I recommend you go to my NC partition repair thread linked in my signature and follow the steps there.

Thanks, I will be trying the NC partition repair next. It seems to be ignoring the bootable CWM & stock zip entirely (or at least it will not boot at all) despite being fully charged.
EDIT: It looks like I spoke too soon! I'm now able to boot into CWM after leaving the NC sitting around for a few hours! I restored the ROM, put on stock 1.4.1, then did 8 failed boots and went back down to 1.2.0.
So, now I am now to 100% stock and debating my next steps.

If you want rooted stock, go to my NC Tips thread, follow A15 and put 1.4.3 on it, then go to Manual Nooter 5.08.20 in the dev forum.
If you want CM10.1 on SD follow my updated NC SD guide.
If you want CM10.1 on internal memory, follow eyeballer's emmc guide.

I have a Nook Color that I've used for some time with CyanogenMod 10.2 with no problems. Last night I was looking at the fixes for Netflix since CM currently has a problem with it, and followed the instructions on XDS for the xposed installer (loading Liquid64's NetflixHackPersist.zip). Things appeared to go fine, and it booted into CM again and I ran the app as instructed. Everything seemed fine up to that point.
But on rebooting, the Nook will not go past the Cyanboot screen. Whether I let it boot by itself, or go to the boot menu and select any of the emmc or SD card options, it just sits there saying it's 'loading xxx' whatever option I've selected and never gets past it. I cannot find a way to force it to boot to the SD card to try anything that way.
I've tried 2 SD cards, reformatted and reburned an 8gb clockwork 3.0.2.8 image to make them bootable...so I don't think it's a card problem.
I'd appreciate some help if anyone knows a way around this. I've had experience with rooting and loading from the SD card, but if it always gets to Cyanoboot and I can't get it to even boot the SD card, I'm stuck. (The 8-reboots trick doesn't seem to work..I've likely reworked too much to still do that.)
Thanks,
JT

Try using CWM 6.0.4.7.

Hallelujah! I followed your link and (though what I saw suggested trying CWM 5.5.04 for CM 10.2) it WORKED!! It booted to the SD card from Cyanboot, and I had a CM 10.2.1 zip that I was able to install and I'm back in business.
Out of curiosity, is Cyanoboot something unremovable, meaning I can never simply boot straight to an SD card as in the past? It did let me get to the recovery on this SD card, so I guess Cyanoboot was actually working and my problem was something else...but if I simply did a factory reset and wiped everything, would that have removed Cyanoboot as well?
If anyone has suggestions, I'm trying to decide if I'll keep this thing or sell it, so I'm curious what the most fully functional ROM (CM or ?) is considered to be these days, if I didn't put it back to stock?
I've loved this Nook, and only got into the earlier predicament because I thought, if I sold it, a buyer might want to use Netflix...so I was hoping to have it working with a ROM that would please the average Joe user who might hit up Youtube, Netflix, etc.
Thanks for the help!

If you installed CWM 6.0.4.7 to emmc and want to return to stock go to Leapinlar's tips item A12 on how to return to stock recovery. Or item A15 to flash BN stock recovery using CWM.

Hello!
So, I had CM10 on my Nook Color and was resetting it back to stock and accidentally formatted /boot while trying to format /system in Clockwork Recovery.
My NC won't boot at all. I've tried putting Clockwork Recovery as well as TWRP on an SD Card with the stock nook images but can't even get the nook to boot to SD.
I highly doubt the battery is dead because it was above 80% when this first happened about an hour ago.
I've found some links on what to try but all the download links are old and dead.
What else can I do?
Any/all help is appreciated!
My main goal is to get back to stock 1.4.3

The only way you are going to get it to work is to get it to boot to a bootable SD. It is sometimes difficult to get the SD burned just right to make it boot. See my NC Tips thread linked in my signature and read item A9. Once you get it to boot, follow A15 to get stock back.
