Is it possible to add CWM after a Nookmanager root of 1.2.1? I wanna add multi or dual touch but can't get CWM on
AFAIK, CWM doesn't install on the NST - it boots from an SD card. Just create your CWM SD card add the kernel CWM stuff to it and boot to apply it. Doesn't matter if you used NookManager.

You should never fist your Nook.
Seriously, you have to provide info on your setup. CM7 version, CWR version, SD or eMMC install, etc.....
Without knowing what you were initially trying to fix or what materials you have on hand, I would say make an up-to-date CWM card:

Download 1gb CWM 3.2.0.1 sdcard image from here. MD5 of .zip: 1319739d33642ed860e8044c3d55aa56. (I made this based on work in this thread. credit: to cmstlist and DizzyDen, and kevank for hosting). You really only need the 1gb image for this guide, no matter what the size of your card is. A smaller image will burn faster, and when you're done with the guide you can reformat the card anyway.
Extract the clockworkmod .img (if you can't open the file use 7zip)and burn to sdcard using win32diskimager (free) or winimage (shareware). These apps will need to be "run as administrator." If you're not sure how to do this see step 3 here. ***Some internal laptop/desktop readers will not work to do this, you may need an external USB reader if you run into problems.***

Then install a CWM-flashable stock zip:

Put update-nc-stock-1.3.zip (do not unzip!) on your SD card.
Insert card and power on NC.
From CWM main menu, in "mounts and storage," format system, data and cache.
From CWM main menu, "install zip from sdcard," and "choose zip from sdcard."
Choose the 1.3-keep-CWM file.
From CWM main menu, "reboot system now."

Good Evening Everyone,
I am opening up this thread because I am not able to use the Backup Current Rom feature in my Nook Color using ext3 or ext4 file system on my micro-sd card.
Is there any way to fix this problem without using fat32?
This is what happen:
I select Backup Current Rom
The nook restarts
Waiting for SD card to mount
Can't mount SD card...
Bye and thank you very much in advance

This sounds like you are running CM7 off of SD... you DO NOT use CWM for SD installs.
If you are not running off of SD... then I'd make sure you have the current version of CWM (3.2.0.1) and try mounting the SD from the menu's before trying anything else.
Hi, First of all, thanks for answering to my inquiry
Yes I run CM7 on from the internal memory of the Nook Color and yes, I am running CWM (3.2.0.1).
If I mount the sd card from the menu settings->storage->Mount SD Card, the sd card is mounted without any problems... The problem is when I try to Backup Current Rom
I tried also to reboot manually in recovery mood and do:
mounts and storage
mount /sdcard and I get Error mounting /sdcard!

Assuming you have a good flashable CwMR 3.2.01 uSD.
Plug it into the NC, when powering up, it should be automatically booted into CwM Recovery. From there, do the Backup.
No need to mount SD card. In fact, don't know why you would do that?

1- How do I know if I have a good flashable CwMR 3.2.01 uSD?
I have the one that comes with the CM7 updated to 3.2.0.1.
2- I went on ROM Manager ->Backup Current ROM but still, when I am in the recovery mode and I click on
backup and restore -> backup
I get the message Can't mount /sdcard
I have also tried to turn on the nook and enter into the recovery mode by pressing the n key but still, I get Can't mount /sdcard when I try to backup my ROM.
What do I do wrong?
P.S. In case my CwMR is not good, how do I remove it?

Ehhhh, honestly, no clue what you're trying to say.
Anyway, let's start from scratch.
Firstly, pls let us know your current system such ROM version, where it boots from, .....
Secondly, what are you trying to do? Make a backup?

The ROM version is CyanogenMod-7-11162011-NIGHTLY-encore.

It boots from eMMC (I think... I installed the ROM in the Internal Memory)

Bye and thank you very much.
Clear!
Now, if you did install ROM into eMMC yourself, then I assume you know how to create a flashable CwMR uSD and it is good.
Assuming the flashable uSD is fresh and good.
1. Insert the uSD into NC. Power it up. It will boot into recovery AUTOMATICALLY.
2. From the CwMR menu, using volume up/down button to to Advanced, then Backup. Let it run until finishes. Theoretically, the entire backup .zip file should be around 100MB.
3. Remove the uSD off NC.
4. The backup .zip file should probably be in the "clockworkmod" folder under ROOT. Transfer it to PC or other space to save.
That's it.
There is absolutely no need dealing with "mount SD" or "ext3" or "ext4"
I had CM7.1 installed onto the microSD (verygreen's method) and also had MIUI on emmc.
Today I decided to the unusable MIUI and install CM7 to emmc. Installation went fine but post installation of CM7(emmc) I booted into my SD CM7 to do a TB to restore onto emmc but it couldnt read/find the supposed SD(i.e. mmcblk1p4)
Next up I tried NookColor UMS. It mounts emmcblk1p1 as boot and I can add/remove files but the emmcblk1p4 gets mounted as a removable drive that "needs to be formatted".
(P.S. I did try mmcblk1p2/p3 but couldn't see anything in them either. I assumed they must be ext and since I'm on win7 I cant view them)
How do I get the emmcblk1p4 to mount/read?
thanks!
Did you use the same sd card to install CM7 to the emmc as you used for CM7?

Yeah. The same. I put the zip in the boot partition of the card. (mmcblk1p1)

Are you sure that you didn't format your card when you wrote the boot image to install CM7 to the emmc?
How did you go about installing CM7 to emmc? Which emmc install method did you use?

Here's what I did:
1. Reboot into recovery. (Emmc CWM, not verygreen's installer.)
2. Unmount/remove SDcard.
3. Wipe/data factory reset.
4. Insert/ mount SDcard
5. Install zip from SDcard.
6. Choose zip and confirm
I know when we do a wipe data/factory reset then the sd-ext partition is formatted and that would delete any one of my CM7 SD partitions so I removed SD before this step.
Could it be that during flashing something happened to mmcblk1p4?
I had no ideas about the various methds for emmc install. I thought this was the standard procedure. Please tell me how to recover. Also if possible can you tell which would be the best method for doing something like this?

How possibly you can use ONE uSD for both CwMR and CM7?
I don't think it works that way.
Either your provided info is incorrect or it is a completely new to us.

As I stated in my previous post..the CWM is emmc while have 2 copies of CM7 (sdcard- verygreen and the normal emmc). And CWM recognises emmcblk1p1 as sd-card. So I put ROMs there.
And my emmcblk1p4 can't be read.

I'm running CM7 off of an SD card. I believe if I flash CWM Recovery from ROM Manager, it will flash it onto the eMMC ... is that correct?
Also, if I update the su binary from within Superuser apk, will it update it on the SD or eMMC?
Also, what would happen if I formatted SD from within CM7? Would it format the WHOLE SD or just the FAT32 partition that CM7 sees as the SD card?
My Nookcolor is not rooted or modified at all. I've never booted into the stock rom to be exact.
Thanks for the help.

You are right, flashing from ROM Manager puts it on emmc. And flashing things from CWM recovery normally flashes things to emmc. There are special modified versions of CWM that will flash things to SD, but I'm sure you don't have one of those. If you are interested in getting one that you put on SD so that you can backup your system, etc, just search for alternate CWM recovery and my name. I posted a version. (Edit: look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=22719241)
Updating su will put it on the system you are running at the time.
I think formatting the SD will format the whole card, if not at least your boot partition. I would not try it. You can put it in your PC and use partition software to format just partition 4 if you want just that sdcard partition cleared.
Hi,
I was trying some things and was modifying my build.prop. When I rebooted my nook was stuck in a boot loop.
I have a backup of my unmodified build.prop, but don't know how to replace the original. All help welcome.
Thanks
Ways to fix it:
use stock recovery
noogie on an SD card, restore backup
noogie on an SD card, try putting an override in default.prop in uRamdisk
noogie on an SD card, use a Linux host to edit /system/build.prop
noogie on an SD card, make a backup, hexedit b.p, restore
noogie on an SD card, install Clockwork Mod Recovery, then use ADB to fix b.p
use omaplink.exe to boot Clockwork Mod Recovery over USB, then use ADB to fix b.p
Well, that's about all the ideas I have.

Thanks Renate, I'll try installing CWM through the noogie to push the unmoded build.prop through adb.
