I have installed CM7 on the SD card and NOT the Nook's internal memory, so if the SD card is taken out I still have my stock Nook ROM.
However, I have installed ClockWorkRecovery through the CM7 ROM (installed in SD Card) and now I would like to remove just CWR, since I cannot receive Nook official ROM update if CWR is installed.
Is there an easy way to do this?

Thanks for the link, but the solution given there does not work.
The problem I am having is because CWR is installed on the Nook internal memory, but CM7 is installed in the SD card.
As of right now, I CANNOT BOOT INTO CWR. When I boot into CM7 (installed in SD card and not Nook's Internal memory) and try to reboot to CWR, the Nook will boot but then just go back to CM7
Did you try shutting the NC off, removing the SD card, then holding the power and 'n' button? I don't know if that will work unless you've got a custom rom...

CM7 Requires you write it to the internal memory of the Nook Color itself.
The SD card is only used to Boot up CWR ext4 version, and Write the rom to the internal memory.
When you make this SD card it will Rewrite all the information on the SD card, also when you put CM7 on your nook it will Remove the stock Rom, Fully.
No one has made a bootable SDcard Version of CM7 yet and is not likly too happen till they get a stable version out. right now they are still just working on the nightlys
after I write clockwork to a sd card, and install cm7 can I then uninstall the clockwork from my sd card?
I have a nook myself and I run phiremod from emmc, but I have a friend who wants to keep his nook completely stock, but still use android roms via the sd card.
What would I have to do to make it so he could insert the SD card boot the nook and it boots to a froyo or eclair rom, and when he takes the card out and boots the nook it goes back to stock.
The guide to running phiremod from the sd card is beyond me and anything stable and simple will do.
Also, he's running the latest BN firmware on the nook.
This is the best:
[ROM][CM7] Size-agnostic SD Card image and CM7 installer for SD Cards. with updater
This gives you CM7(2.3 Gingerbread) and it self adjusts depending on the Size of the card you use.
It also makes installing GoogleApps and Updating the ROM easy without the need to have a Linux PC or ClockWorkMod. You just put the ROM zip on the "boot" partition(the one that shows up in Windows) and Hold N+Power for 6 seconds when your Nook is off to boot to Recovery and it'll Automatically Update from the zip. It works the same way when installing Gapps.
All in all, the best expirience I've had with SD ROMs.
PS: I'm doing the same thing as your friend. I have Unrooted Stock on EMMC and run CM7 off my 4gb Class 6 SD.

SO basically I want to
1.) burn a CWR SD card.
2.) Put it in the nook and boot into CWR
3.) Take the card out, format it back to fat32
4.) Put the Phiremod 6.3 SD flashable rom.zip on it.
5.) Pop it back into the nook and mount the storage.
6.) Flash Phiremod onto the SD card.
7- Turn nook on and Profit??
Well, I just booted my NC to CWR from SD, then removed the SD and was able to read a second card without any error from CWR.
So I suppose that would work in theory, the only difference would be you are doing it on one single card and not two. Though I don't know how safe it would be.
Yea I took the plunge and tried it.
Although I flashed
Update 4/30: v6.2 Update(This will format /system only): http://www.multiupload.com/58WUW1AZ0A
MD5 - 70b2ff0345897252f3f3dff8728a4b55
found in this thread Flashing Roms to SD CARD -
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=998861
and I didn't boot into Phiremod, instead it was nook stock.
Would I first need to flash V6.zip, then flash the 6.2 update.zip?
EDIT* Did not work. Still boots into stock
How about you try this:
[ROM][CM7] Size-agnostic SD Card image and CM7 installer for SD Cards. with updater
I don't know if it works with a Phiremod ROM but it doesn't hurt to try. I used this to install plain CM7 on my Card.

I bought a nook color for my 9 year old son as a gift, mainly for him to read more books. After browsed this site, I was able to create a bootable SD of CM7, and then I rooted the NC. Now I am thinking maybe it is not a good idea to give my son a rooted NC because he can load game on it.
I did a factory reset, everything back to stock 1.3, but when I use the bootable SD to try to boot to CM7, always failed, even I made a new CM7 SD, first it will boot to SD and install CM7, but after restart, it always goes to nook stock rom, did something wrong?
Thanks for your help.
even I made a new CM7 SD, first it will boot to SD and install CM7,

Please explain all the steps.....
Sounds like your Nook CM7 "install" SD card is actually a bootable SD card.....
Will CM load with the card in? Is CM not loading only when you take the card out?
If these statements are true, its because CM is actually installed on your SD card and running from there, nothing is actually being installed to your nooks internal memory.

Hi, thanks for your replay. After tried lots of flushing, I finally found what's wrong. Yes, my SD is a bootable, what I like is, most time NC just run stock rom, only books, no games, for my son. When I use it, I can plug in sd card and run CM7, and use it as a regular tablet (poor kid).
I put CM7 install zip and google apps zip on the bootable SD, it flashed the rom and the gapps no problem, but after a reboot, it never be able to boot from SD card again. The problem is, I shouldn't put both zip at the same time, has to be flash CM7 first, then reboot to CWM again to flash gapps.
I recently purchased a nook hd+, went through leapinlar's tutorial on how to boot into cwm, root, and modify my stock nook with a custum rom(carbon) on a 1gb sd card. I just purchased a 32db sd card and I want to know the process or is there a process to put twrp recovery on my nook and be able to boot into it without having to put the 1gb sd card in every time I want to get into recovery. I've searched some but get more confused the more I look and I don't feel like bricking my nook. Can I also boot into recovery with carbon rom? I've tried by going through the power menu, reboot and by turning off the nook and hitting power and the "n" key and neither will get me into recovery. From what I've read I think I have to put the "ovation-sdcard-twrp-files.zip" file on the 32gb sd card but not sure on the procedure. So if any one can give me a dumb down version of what I have to do to be able to keep my 32gb sd card in the nook at all times and still get into recovery like any other nexus or android phone would do, I would greatly appreciate it.
P.S. I have formatted the 32gb sd card with sdformatter but was unsure if I was supposed to use partition software or the zip file for sd cards larger than 4gb.
Thanks again.......

Never mind, I figured out that I never added the 6028 internal cwm zip and that was my problem, now I can boot into recovery.
