Is anyone working on a custom rom for the NC? We have cwm recovery so what's the hold up?
Cyanogen is being worked on

Does clockwork support writing of the internal nand? I was over in dev and I was trying to figure out why nookie froyo could only be run from a SD card? It would seem to be a fully functional rom and writing it to the internal nand would make it that much cooler.

The developer is close to making it a flashable rom.
Spiccy, check again... nookie can run from internal emmc.

Hi,
The main reason i rooted my old g1 is because i thought it would be nice if i could have the any working sense ROM flashed on it.
Upon research I discovered that i needed to partition my sd card to successfully flash a sense rom, which was a problem for me, because whenever i tried moving ext2 to ext3 or ext3 to ext4 it would say "error- run fs ext3/ext4 via console".
Is this because im using the 128mb sd that came with the phone or is it something else?
If it's something that i dont have the mental capacity to fix myself then I was wondering if was any half decent sense ROM that works without any sd partitions.
Thanks in advance.

Maybe there are some old sense ROMs which doesnt need ext4 , i don't know, but the best fully functioning Sense ROM for the g1 is DroidEris and this ROM need MTD.
128MB is too little

Here is a great tutorial to patition your SD card:

and here is how to MTD :

well droideris runs good without swap lol also mtd if you find how to use it not sure but the new base we are on today should be ok with ext2 needs tseting though xD if not find that 4gb sd card ^^
From my understanding there are roms that can be flashed to the nand memory (wiping out the stock b&n crap), roms that can be burned to the emmc, and roms that can be burned to and booted from an SD card.
Provided I understand that right, ideally I want to have Gingerbread installed on the emmc and possibly either Nookie or the modified Eclair rom on the rom memory..
Am I understanding this correctly? Is this setup possible? If this is possible, could you then burn a THIRD rom to an SD card and also boot from that?
There is a thread somewhere with a script to change boot priorities and allowing you to boot into any OS, but I just want to ensure I fully understand how this thing works before I go attempting to flash 3 OS versions lol
This Nook is just my toy, I bought it the day I saw the honeycomb port so I just want to play around with different rom setups till honeycomb is stable and ready to be flashed the nand memory.
Thanks for any help to further my understanding, it's greatly appreciated.
My understanding is there is no nand on the nook which makes sense.
Roms that flash to emmc actually replace the stock rom image.
There are only two ways to install roms: to internal flash memory (EMC) and external flash memory (SD), so the answer is "no".
However, it should be possible with modified uRamdisk (or u-boot so it would run different init/init.rc, which would mount different partitions/subdirs) to have multiple roms on a single SD card.
ah ok I see...so the there is no rom/nand memory and the stock rom is stored of the emmc? So at most you could have one rom on the emmc and one on the external SD?
That makes alot more sense. Thanks for clarifying guys. I'm about to flash Honeycomb to the emmc, wish me luck ha
I'm currently running phiremod nook V3 found here(followed the instructions too):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=954902
I'm trying to get the OC kernal installed but can't get adb to recognize my nook. I'm guessing this might have to do with me not hooking my nook up to install the correct drivers.
Can I use this guide to get my internal partition back to stock software?

Thanks for helping a NC noob out.
Does your Nook boot at all? Or does it just stay on a black screen?

Go there for help.
Thanks for the quick responses. Im currently still running phiremod. No problems with it yet. Just flashed the app fix.
I more curious if I went by those steps I mentioned above if I could get back to stock.

Yes, they would work, burning an SD card, and copying the 1.0.1 (or whichever version you want to restore to) zip file to the SD card, and flashing that.
As for the OC kernel, Dalingrin has a .zip file that you flash from Clockwork just like how you installed phiremod. You'd want the one that is for CM7.

So I was looking at the right thing. D'OH!
So from my reformatted SD card I'll download this to root of SD with CWR
-Froyo and CM7 Only
DOWNLOADS:
eMMC:
Froyo and CM7 (eMMC installations only) CWM update: http://www.multiupload.com/IJK50K41GG
Power NC on
Install from SD
Select file and install
Remove SD
Reboot?
EDIT: Do I unzip that file or leave it as is?
Many thanks.
Do not unzip. Copy that zip onto your SD card that has CWM burned to it. The actual process of flashing it takes only a few seconds, not as long as flashing the whole ROM takes.
Got it! Thanks again for clearing things up for me. Things are a little different than my dx.

I have Nookie Froyo sdcard for my Nook, I would like to switch to CM7 stable version on sdcard and wanted to know if there is a setup version already.
SDCARD bootable CM7
I run CM7 on Droid incredible and really like it, so I thought I would try it out on Nook if it was not a huge hassle.
Thanks!
Hi,
I installed DREAMteam Froyo v2.0.0 on my G1 recently and pretty much everything is running as it should. I'm just having some doubts over whether Apps2sd-ext is actually working. I have this setting enabled in Froyo Parts, but my internal phone storage is filling up with every app that I install and nothing seems to happen to my SD storage. I'm thinking that I probably need to *do* something myself first to make this work, maybe I need to to create an ext* partition on the SD card? Can somebody help me out with this?
By the way, I would have posted this in the thread for the ROM itself, but I'm not allowed to .
Thanks!
yup, boot to recovery, partition your sd card there... personally id say 512 to 1gb of ext4 and no swap but do as you please
also save your content first as the partitioning is sure to erase all
