[Q] using stock nc rom plus froyo... is it possible to... - Nook Color General

I flashed froyo to my emmc. What im wondering now is if I put the nc stock rom on an external mem card, is it possible to boot THAT from the card and still have access to the b&n store? Basically flip the circumstances around so that I can use froyo internally (which i prefer) and stock externally. Possible?

[Q] Froyo 2.2.1 FRG83D -- Partitioning SD Card?

I've got an N1 w/ Froyo 2.2.1 FRG83D; rooted using SuperOneClick.
Am I correct to assume that at this stage (that is w/ out a custom ROM) I am able to take advantage of Apps2SD?
I am considering utilizing www.gadgetsdna.com or androidandme.com suggested method. Ofcourse if there is a better method, suggestions are most welcome.
Additions to initial inquiry.
I am interested in the advantages of "Apps2SD", but am still contemplating a custom ROM.
1. Is it even possible to partition the SD card with root and stock Froyo 2.2.1 FRG83D?
2. If so, will having a partitioned SD card effect the operations of stock Froyo 2.2.1 FRG83D?
3. Does flashing recovery image w/ ROM Manager involve unlocking bootloader?

(Idea) Stock Nook from SD?

I was wondering if anyone has been working on a stock nook software port for a sd card. That would allow us to have both HC and stock nook running together if we wanted it for the stock app. Another thing i was wondering about is if the dual boot emmc hack allows stock boot and hc or froyo to boot as well from one drive

[Q]How to add recovery and flash a rom?

Hey, so I had my nook auto-nootered (1.0.1) and just factory reset it (1.0). I haven't messed around with it in a while and things have changed since I last messed around with it and I really cant seem to find a tut on how to get clockwork mod to run and then flash a rom. From what I understand nookie froyo is the most popular rom but it needs an 8 gig card though I read it can be made to fit on a 2 or 4gig card? Anyway any help is appreciated. Thanks.

[Q] Getting just simple root on Nook Color? (Not flashing ROMS)

I was wondering what the fastest way to get just simple root on my Nook was. I don't need to flash rom's like Cyanogenmod/Phiremod to Nook internal memory; I'm fine with the vanilla stock Nook UI. I just want to be able to install my own apps and possibly get Market. I don't want to nuke what's currently on the Nook.
What's the simplest way to do this? I have stock software version 1.4.2

[Q] shall i let it boot to stock? not used before

Hi,
Just bought a sealed hd+ 32gb and been reading all the threads for a few weeks. I dont want to use the stock nook system but want to run from a 32gb sd card. shall i still run through the stock nook setup where it updates , logsin to b&n account etc??? i though it may help to not allow this as it will update the software to version 2.0.6 automatically , which i understand makes some mods more difficult. I dont want to allow the auto updating of stock b&n software in the future ?
Also can you recommend the easiest instructions to follow to install the most stable CM10 version on an 32gb sandisc 4 sd card?
Any thoughts would be really appreciated Thanks
You probably should go ahead and boot to stock and let it update and register. If you do not want to register, look at my HD/HD+ Tips thread linked in my signature for skipping the OOBE. Then any time it tries to boot to stock, it can complete. Updating to 2.0.6 will have no effect on running things from SD.
As far as installing CM10 on SD, you have two choices, install the Original SD or my Hybrid SD. I have easy install guides for both also linked in my signature.

Is it possible for b&N to stop the ability to boot from sd card with a software update?

No, unless they change the hardware it will always boot.
