I've spent weeks (literally) following these forums and decided that my best bet was to go the "boot from SD card" route. Was able to create an 8GB card with Nookie Froyo and it seems to work on my NC, but ... now what do I do? I just want to get the Kindle app and a couple of games working but I don't know how to get them from the market because there doesn't seem to "be" a market, at least not like the Market on my Droid X. I have some .apk files, but what do I do with them - put them on the card somewhere to run?
I'm the techgeek in the family but this has me stumped. Google search has not been my friend or else I've not been searching correctly. I won't be insulted if someone points me to a "step by step" thread that addresses what you do after you get the SD card done. All I can seem to find is how to create a card.
Thanks in advance.

Ok I can't seem to find any info on this in the search, but I apologize if I missed it
Heres the deal, I'm currently running CyanogenMod 4.1.9999 with Apps2SD on an 8gb Class 4 MicroSD
I just ordered a new Class 6 16gb card and I wanted to know how I could properly transfer all my data and apps from my current card to the new one when it gets here? Would it be as simple as an xcopy in windows? How do I make sure I can get the partitions transferred over properly?
Thanks
Wrong section. Regardless, do adb pulls of files on your sdcard. Partition new card and adb push them back. Of course there are more complications such as when to insert your sdcard. Make sure your phone is turned off when inserting new sdcard
Sorry about that, but how do I do an "adb pull"?
here you go. search please! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=502010
Thanks! I really appreciate it!
No problem. Good luck. Welcome to XDA. Make sure you post in the correct section next time.

[Q] Failed to move application. Not enough memory" when trying to move applications.
I've been using my google skills to try to figure this one out, but unfortunately, I did not find a single helpful post. I'm hoping someone can help.
When trying to move an application to the internet SD card, I get the error "Failed to move application. Not enough memory".
Problem is, I have 1.7GB left "On phone" and 11.3GB left "On SD Card". I'm using Apps2sd to report how much storage is left and to determine which applications can be moved.
I have read that if I had an external memory card, it would work. But I want to know if there's something that can be done so that we can move them to the internal SD instead.
From what I saw on a Nexus One, it appears that other Android phones don't have an internal SD card. So it would make sense that it moves it only to the external SD...
I just want input on this "problem", I'd really like to know why I can't use my 16GB of storage for applications! And also, enlighten other people that might come across this.
same problem here, any work around this issue?

Same problem. I don't want to use an external SD card. I just want to move the apllications to the internal SD card.
same Fu******ing problem...i've formatted my sd card...nothing, i get always the same message...failed to move application not enough memory

Anyone? C'mon folks! Why is this happening? How do we fix it? Could it be because of the lagfix? Using Froyo JL2 on a rooted and lagfixed (OCLF) I9000M.
Same here. As the previous posters, I am unable to move any app to SD.
When I try (through Manage applications), I get the dreaded "Failed to move application. Not enough memory" even if I have plenty of memory.
Is this a common problem? Are we the only ones experiencing it?
I am running JPY, updated through Kies after disabling the Voodoo lagfix and then doing a factory reset.
Please please help. At least let us know that it is just us and that it works for the rest of JPYs out there.

Received my replacement handset from Orange (UK) today. The GPS is locking on soo well, functions properly now.
I flashed straight to JPY via reg patch, tried moving an app to SD, get the same error message.
It worked on my old handset 2.2.1 JPY also but with subpar GPS. Today i receive a new handset with a different problem lol.
Any ideas...anyone??
Hey all .... the move to SD is only valid for EXTERNAL SD card, NOT internal.
I successfully moved some apps over after I slot in an external SD card for my SGS. Tried this after I read somewhere the 'apps2sd' tool is designed only for EXTERNAL SD.
Hope this helps....

So is the internal SD only for data storage, not apps?
I found a solution!
I had the same exact problem as you have, and after some rummaging around the interwebs I've found an answer -> SDMove
Just for the sake of information, make sure you don't have the phone connected to your PC via cable. Just like how it happened with me.
Also try SDMaid in market. It cleans the sd.
same problem
I have the same problem and I have an external SD card. Captivate ATT android 2.2 (for now)
I've dealt with many ROM's on my OG Droid so I'm confident in my ability to root the nookcolor. However, one this eludes me so far. The SD card.
Do I need to buy a small SD card that has the ROM I want on it which the nook will always boot from? Or is it a one time deal where the nook will load from the SD card and keep it in internal storage. I've done some searching but I haven't been successful, obviously. So I apologize for starting "that" thread if the answer already exists.
Not necessarily a noob when it comes to phones, but a Nook n00b.. Is it possible to root a Nook Color WITHOUT a SD card?? I use a Mac and everything I've seen calls for a PC and an SD card. Is there a way around this???
Ok how about getting it done on a Mac? I saw a walkthrough but it was for an older version of the software, I believe it was from nookdevs. It says it's out dated but does the mac portion still apply??

Bump. I'm looking for this too but for a Windows machine. The NC I got came with 1.2 on it and I won't have my SD card with me for another 24-48 hours. I can't use Autonooter since that's not compatible with 1.2 and I don't see any other way to get CWM onto the NC to flash another ROM besides the use of an SD card.
Thoughts? Thanks!
It'll definitely work on a Mac (Linux also) but I don't know of any way to do it without an SD card.
The only difference between Mac and Windows(and linux) instructions are the steps about writing the image to SD. So the old guides will still be right on about that step, if you have questions.
As far as installing CWM or rooting without an SD card, I don't believe it's possible, sorry. You'll just have to wait until you have access to one. If you were an unethical person, you could buy one at the nearest electronics store that won't charge you a restocking fee, use it to install CM7, and return it.
I followed the instructions to put cm7 on a sd card and everything installed and worked well but things loaded a little slow. I bought a couple sandisk class 4 cards for mine and a friends nook because those are supposed to be better. well I cant get it to work now! the old card still works but when i insert the new sandisk and the penguin starts loading i get a bunch of i/o errors and the cm7 logo ends up looping and never loads up. ive searched for a while. any help is appreciated.
Sounds like your card got corrupted for some reason. Consider flashing a nandroid and just redoing everything.
thanks for the reply. I dont quite know what that advice means. haha
well, that means, if you have backed up your card somehow, you're going to have to reinstall everything and flash back your entire system.
Considering that you are on a SD card system, there are only 2 ways you could have done this back up, 1 is a full on image via winimage or made a backup (nandroid) of your system+data. The nandroid or backup made by cwm would have to be written to your fake "sd" card after you remake your bootable cm7, then you could reinstall that information, provided that you have backed up what's on your "fake" sd, you can just copy that back over.
I still have a working bootable sd card with nightly 102 on it. I tried 2 new sandisk cards and get the i/o errors. ive tried formatting and redoing the new cards at least a dozen times. using winimage and whatever that other one is called windisk32 or whatever. very confused as to why its not working and where to go from here.
Oh, that's odd. I wish I had a solution for you. At this point, it almost sounds like it's an hardware issue as opposed to your software/sd cards.
You got a friend with a nook color you can test your cards out on? If they work on his nook, maybe your reader is messed up, dust/water/etc?'
Sorry, not of much help at this point.
its really weird. they wont work on the other nook either. but the old one does. is there a best way to format an sd card? when I couldnt get them to work initially i started messing with the partitions in disk management. i generally just use the nook to format them.
Well, get easeus partition manager and collapse them all, so a slow format and then try to write the image.
I was able to load everything onto another card. neither sandisk worked... crazy talk.
Well, I think we've established that it's probably how you're writing to your sd cards.
So assuming your software is good (md5 checksums match), then it's a matter of hardware.
2 suggestions, use another computer and try to burn on that.
Use a different microSD reader/writing device (do you use a usb device or is it built in or is it a SD card that you slip the micro one into?)
