Clockwork backup "can't mount /system!"

Like the title says, when I try to create a backup clockwork does the following:
Backing up boot...
Backing up system...
Can't mount /system!
I'm about to try dual boon on internal and want to make sure I can restore stock if I need to.
I'm rooted using autonooter 3.

I've got the same problem, which I haven't solved yet. But I did come across this (which I haven't tried): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=11868531

I had the same problem. Backup works with clockwork 3.0.0.5, but not with 3.0.1.0. Run rommanager and choose book color (old) when choosing the recovery to flash.

Try going into rom manager and reflashing the clockwork recovery, but this time select the opposite of whatever you selected before. For me, I have Rom Manager 3.0.1.3 on an autonootered 1.1, but the first time, I select "Nook Color". I went back and reflashed and this time selected "Nook Color (old)" and that did the trick.
Found one answer here: http://www.androidtablets.net/forum/nook-color-technical/10099-backup-error-think-im-worrying-nothing.html. Sounds like the solution is just try opposite of what you did the first time. I noticed the flash was to clockwork 3.0.1.0 until I did "old", and then it was 3.0.0.5.
Unfortunately, after doing that, it will only boot into clockworkmod recovery now...sigh

KEY POINT!! REBOOT YOUR SYSTEM AFTER THE CMW FLASH!!!
If you don't you end up in a boot loop, like me!!
If you end up in the boot loop, go get the CWR-removal.zip file (I got mine from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=914690 and use it to remove the recovery flash.
I don't know if you can do it from that boot by dropping the file on the sd card and installing it (I'm assuming so), but I had a spare bootable CMR I used, just to be safe.
Then go back in, reflash the recovery in rom manager AND REBOOT!!!

If you were on B&N 1.1.0 and then did autonooter 3.0 to root your NC, you absolutely MUST do a complete power off/on between the steps -Flash Recovery and -Boot into Recovery.
If you do not, you will get stuck in a boot loop. In which as stated above you will need to use a bootable SD, flash the 'remove cwr', and then install again.
And for the 'can't mount /system' issue while trying to do a backup - it's likely because you are on a non-ext4 rom (ie CM7) and you picked the 'Nook Color' device when you flashed recovery per the install instructions. Funny thing is, it won't work. Go back into ROM Manager and flash recovery again but select 'Nook Color (old)' and then power off, power back on, reboot into recovery and you will be able to complete a nand backup.
Be sure to document your situation and post it to the Official CWR 3010 thread in the Dev sub-forum and maybe we can get an answer or a fix from the devs.

Stuck at Boot Screen Help Please

Hi guys,
I tried installing CM7 onto my nook, i installed the zip of it onto the root of my sd card and then went into clockwork and installed the zip without wiping anything. Now im stuck at the stock android root boot screen not the even the CM7 one. I tried to go into recovery but i cant and i cant do the 8 interruptions either. I was just wondering if i have to restore the NC back to 1.1 or can i just burn the image of clockwork onto my sd card and zip another rom instead?

This happened to me, too.
I think it was because I wasn't using the latest Clockwork.
Take your SD card out and redo it making sure you use CW 3.0.1.0.
Then follow the steps listed here:
Download a working build of CyanogenMod and place it on the root of the card.
Optional: Download the Google Apps archive and place it on the root of the card.
Turn your Nook Color completely off. (Hold power button then tap "Power Off")
Insert the SD card you installed ClockworkMod Recovery onto.
Once ClockworkMod Recovery has booted, use the volume buttons to highlight options, the "n" button to select the highlighted option, and power to go back a menu.
Select Wipe data/factory reset.
Select Wipe cache partition.
Go to install zip from sdcard, then choose zip from sdcard and find your build of CyanogenMod.
Optional: Repeat step 6 with your Google Apps archive instead.
Go to mounts and storage --> unmount sdcard --> remove sdcard. (Rebooting without this step may just return you to the CWR menu.)
Go back to the main menu and select reboot system now. The Nook Color should now boot into CyanogenMod.
(In my case it froze and I had to hold power to shut it off with no negative effects. Your results may vary.)
Sigh, had to copy n paste the steps since I can't post links yet.
I re-did mine and it turned out just fine.

Thanks a lot. Im going to try that out and report back.

Yeah, sounds like you missed the wipe /system /data /cache step. I did the same once, and resulted the same bootloop -> took me a few minutes to realize what I had done.

Did what you guys said and my nook is back . Thanks a lot for the input. Saved me!

[Q] Where do I start?

Just got my color nook today.
Trying to get my nook color up and running on a custom rom. But I am lost, there appears to be quiet a few ways to start and I am not sure the best and most updated method.
So as of now I am not rooted, pretty much pulled it out and charged it, I checked and its running 1.1.0 out of the box.
I'm going for the Phiremod rom, and I want to boot from internal memory not SD card.
Would really appreciate some links to what I need.
Thanks

lost just lost
so i ended up using autonooter
then made a sd card with clockworkmod on it
installed clockwork mod, installed a zip just like i would on a phone
and .... no go it wont boot to android just back to clockworkmod, what am i doing wrong?
also getting an error in clockwork
"E:can't mount /cache/recovery/log"
"E:can't open /cache/recovery/log"
"E:can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log"
"E:can't open /cache/recovery/last_log"

The errors are normal; since you don't have any cache or its not mounted.
You burned a CWM image on a SD card and installed the Phiremod rom from his Zip file in CWM?
Then you only have to remove the sd-card while in CWM and then choose 'reboot device' (first option in main menu) (sometimes you get back in CWM but reboot a couple of times and it should boot Phiremod CM7 off the emmc.)
(if the Nook finds a bootloader on the SD card, it'll load that instead of the internal emmc memory. )

too used to phones
hey thanks so much for the reply
that would have solved the problem, but i was running cwm on internal and using a different sd card
found out what was wrong, i was doing the wipes like you would on the phone
i.e. wipe data/factory reset and cache there
(instead of from inside mounts and storage)
finally up and running after 4 hours haha
thanks again

Just flashed a new 1.1.0 to CM7; no need for autonooter if you're going custom ROM straight off.
1. Download the SDCard-bootable CWM. Burn to MicroSD with WinDiskImage32 (needs to be run as Admin for block-level access if you get write errors)
2. Drop on your ROM .zip of choice.
3. Drop on the gapps .zip
4. Eject, insert into Nook, boot up.
5. TAKE A BACKUP. This is your 'oh crap' restore point.
6. Install zip from SD; install ROM. Do the same, install gapps. Wipe cache and data.
7. Remove MicroSD, boot NC. If it works, format the MicroSD card in your computer as FAT32 (after copying off your backup, under the clockworkmod directory), insert into NC, good to go. If it bombs out, redo step 4-7, skipping 5.
If you can't get it to load, boot from MicroSD and restore your backup. No harm, no foul. Keep a copy of this 'gold' backup on your computer. I forgot to do this and ended up blowing my original away when I reformatted my MicroSD.

Bricked

Here is my latest attempt to get working again.
I tried about a month go to unbrick and put aside to let my mind get fresh. A month ago DizzyDen sent me all the memory partitions and I "dd" all of them, but could not get the boot menu below to go away.
Nook is using Encore U-Boot Menu by j4mm3r. 1.2 port + extras by fattire.
From an earlier xda nookcolor post with some modifications:
"1a. Download http://www.mediafire.com/?5vbw33ue7pvod0g
1b. Download http://www.mediafire.com/?1zfj4334krqhs48
1c. Extract the .img files from the above, set aside for now."
2. Here I tried verygreen 1.3 sdcard with latest CM7, internal CWM recovery and SDcard CWM recovery. I used the latest CWM recovery. On the SDcard CWM recovery I used both the latest and the one for the original nook ROM, which mine is.
"3. Install ADB. From what I read there is limited success in installing it in 64-bit Windows. It didn't work for me. This may be the most difficult step." I got it to work on my 64-bit machine.
"4. If you can see the /sdcard partition on the Froyo SD copy the two .img files there.
4a. Insert the Froyo SD Card into the Nook and boot. When it's ready start ADB and verify that it can communicate with the Nookie. (Type "ADB devices" in DOS window)" Here I tried CM7 SDcard, CWM Recovery SDcard and internal and CWM Recovery. CWM Recovery
"4b. If the .img files are on the sdcard already, go to step 5.
4c. Type "ADB push (path)/boot.img /sdcard/boot.img" without quotes and with appropriate source path. Wait until it's done.
4d. Type "ADB push (path)/system.img /sdcard/system.img" without quotes and with appropriate source path. Wait until it's done." Here I copied with windows 7 and tried the adb push commands as well. In either situation I was able to get the boot and system image successfully copied over.
"5. Type "ADB shell" without the quotes.
5a. Type "dd if=/sdcard/boot.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p1" without quotes. Wait until finished.
5b. Type "dd if=/sdcard/system.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p5" without quotes. Wait until finished." It completed successfully.
"6. Once done, turn off Nook and remove SD Card. Save it for another rainy day or put it back into circulation. I saved mine. Cheap insurance for $15.
7. Follow procedure at http://nookdevs.com/Flash_back_to_clean_stock_ROM to restore firmware and reset data." Never able to get here since my boot menu came back up.
Any suggestion as to what I should do next?

1. Don't know what you are trying to do.
2. Don't know what problem you hit.
3. Don't know what your current system is.
Can't help, m8.

I have screwed up my nook to the point that when you turn it on the screen would just be all black, nothing would come up on the screen, and I was able to get back to a fully working system in no time. I would say that it is 99.9% impossible to brick it without really trying too.
Your post is a little hard to understand, so let me see if I have this right,
- You were running a modified version of the stock 1.2 firmware
- You were also using the modified boot menu created by j4mm3r from HERE
- The rest is all a little fuzzy
- You are now trying to return to stock, but can’t because you can’t remove the modified boot menu
If this is somewhat correct, then this should be able to help you.
- Download the stock 1.2 update.zip found HERE, get the “update-nc-stock-1.2-signed.zip” file
- Now download the file to make a bootable CWM card found HERE
- Follow the directions in that post to make your bootable CWM card, then place the “update-nc-stock-1.2-signed.zip” file onto that card
- With your NC off, put the bootable CWM card into your NC, and turn it on
- When CWM starts up, select “wipe cache partition,” followed by “wipe cache partition”
- Now scroll down to and select “mounts and storage”
- Now scroll down to and select “format /boot”
- When that has completed, you will then select “install zip from sdcard”
- Then select “choose zip from sdcard,” and select the “update-nc-stock-1.2-signed.zip” file
- When that has completed, remove the card, and select reboot the device
Your device should now boot just like stock. You can then follow the steps outlined in your step 7 procedure, just follow part one method one, and then part two. At this point you should be back to a completely stock NC.

@GMPOWER
I have the update-nc-stock-1.3.zip on my SDcard ClockworkMod Recovery v3.0.2.8. I have the original nookcolor.
I used my SDcard CWM v3.0.2.8 disk with the update-nc-stock-1.3.zip and followed your instructions.
- With your NC off, put the bootable CWM card into your NC, and turn it on
- When CWM starts up, select “wipe cache partition,” followed by “wipe cache partition”
- Now scroll down to and select “mounts and storage”
- Now scroll down to and select “format /boot”
- When that has completed, you will then select “install zip from sdcard”
- Then select “choose zip from sdcard,” and select the “update-nc-stock-1.3.zip” file
- When that has completed, remove the card, and select reboot the device
My nookcolor rebooted back to green Cyanogen bootup screen followed by the Cyanogen mod skater. Then I get force closes with dspmanager. It is running Mod version 7-08192011-NIGHTLYencore. It did not boot back to stock.
@votinh
What I was trying to do was install update-cm-7.1.0-encore-signed.zip over the last nightly 8-19-2011 that installed correctly. Note: when I attempt from Mounts and Storage to -format /system it hangs and and I have to force restart the nookcolor.
If I attempt to install without format/system the update-cm-7.1.0-encore-signed.zip from the CWM Recovery SDcard v3.0.2.8, it finds, opens, installs, saying Install from sdcard complete. Rebooting and looking at system about says it is still nightly 8-19-2011.
That is why I have tried everything I can to restore the emmc to stock. Everything I tried failed.

I've messed my nook up a couple of time tonight . Have you tried downloading the twrp 2.0 SD card image from here and burning it to a SD card? That will get you a bootable sd card assuming your sd slot isn't broken. Then download the 1.01 Restore from here. Copy that to the bootable sd card and put it in your nook. Power up and you should be in TWRP 2.0 (touchscreen). Wipe system and do a factory reset. After that, flash the nook-complete-restore-1.0.1.zip and reboot to system (after removing sd card). It completely restored me to a stock version, including /boot, etc. One time I did it, I had to hold down the N and power button and do a factory reset for it to boot into the B&N nook ROM.
You could use the clockworkmod bootable sd image as well.

Did you try TWRP 2.0? If it also gives an error, maybe you have a hardware problem.

I think the problem is that you're trying to flash a B&N update, when what's on your device is fubar and/or not a B&N rom.
Try flashing a complete B&N restore, instead. There's a link to a complete 1.0.1 restore in this post. (There's also a complete 1.2 restore floating around, but darned if I can find a link to it just now.)

Must have hardware problem. Anyway to zero out nookcolor so I can return for repair since I can not reset to stock.

As others have said it is virtually impossible to fully brick a Nook and hardware failures are less likely than problems with your procedures.
How are you creating your SD boot card? The method used can determine whether you get a real usable boot SD card. For example, it is most important that you use a real USB card adapter. Do not use a memory card reader slot on a PC or laptop. Do not use a Nook or other phone via USB as a card adapter. For best results use a Sandisk card. Use Win32DiskImager to create the card.
If you do that then I'd suggest you start with the VeryGreen CM7 install method onto the same SD card to prove that all is working independently of the emmc.
If you get to that point then you should be good to proceed to either a return to stock or an emmc CM7 install.
Of course it is possible your hardware is screwed (e.g. emmc not working anymore), but it sounds like you should try a few more things first.

I nearly did this. Follow these instructions:
Step 1) Download and boot and use the contents of repartition-boot-with-stock.zip with an SD Card.
Step 2) Take out SD Card.
Step 3) Manual Restore (Rom flash back)
Step 4) Factory Reset - Scroll down to Part Two on the above page.
Doing this in order is very important.
When you're done you should be greeted by the first-time boot tutorial video and this message:

Using a real USB card adapter, using Sandisk card class 4, using Win32DiskImager to create the cards. Using VeryGreen CM7 with CyanogenMod-7.2.0-RC0-encore-KANG (added prefix update-) and have in the past used update-cm-7.1.0-encore-signed.zip with VeryGreen CM7. All is working independently of the emmc.
Been to this point many a time, return to stock does not work, nor does CM7 install to emmc when booting from latest CWM Recovery on a SDcard. The new TWRP 2.0 from external SDcard does not work either. This is why I am concluding that my emmc has a hardware failure, stuck with my August nightly of CM7 so I can not return.
Any suggestions on how to completely trash the emmc so that I can return it before my 1-year warranty runs out. Everything I do including dd command to the boot and system partitions leave the emmc running the August nightly, usually with force closes when it starts.

I did everything in the order that you said. repartition-boot-with-stock.zip from an SDcard said that it completed successfully for 1.0.1. Went to Part Two. Powered off and rebooted, was greeted with green cyganmod label followed by U-boot Mem with 1.2 port extras by fattite boot loader.
Looks to me like my only options are to run from SDcard or somehow trash emmc so that nothing loads including cyganmod's boot loader so I can claim emmc memory failed and return for warranty replacement.
Any thoughts on how to trash the cyganmod's boot loader and my August nightly installed in the emmc? All attempts to restore to various stock OS's seemed to fail at trashing the green boot loader and August nightly installed in emmc.

Maybe your partitions on the emmc are so screwed up that the previous techniques aren't working.

[Q] Help, all wiped but can't install zip

looks like i am in a big problem here.
i tried to use Clockwork to wipe and install a new rom, but after wipe dalvik, cache and data, i cant update the rom.
i tried to use too diferent zips i have in my sd, but i get a error.
trying "applying a zip from sd card" and "choose zip from sd", i can't enter in the "_external sd" folder, it just return to the previous folder (internal sd) and there is only a "update.zip" there wich i don't know what it is. I had the hope it was a update i did with rom manager but this zip doesn't work too.
if i try the roms that are in the clockwokrmod folder, i get "no files found" and i have to folders inside clockworkmod folder.
what i should try?

now when i click in any option stuk with a image of the exclamation and the Android the android dummy ((((
edit: oh, the menu is back, but i still don't know what to do.

Did you try flash another ROM for odin?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2

i restarded the ox2. I see sd, system and data was unmonted. But even with this mounted don'est work. I am not able to enter in the dir _external sd.
but in the clockwork folder in the internal sd i have 2 backups and they doesn't work too "no files found"

I restarted it now in normal mode and the system is there, just in default mode, asking me to configure, etc.
If i wiped data, cache and everything, where was the files that allowed this rom to "survive"? At least i can use the phone today. I am almost giving up of flash the rom
Please help, why clockwork did not recognize any zip? looks like it was not able to enter any directory

I think you need to select install zip from internal sd. That is the only way I found to install the .zips on my _ExternalSD folder.
BTW, I won't be able to restore the CWM backup because needs to be on an external SD.
I hope it helps.

Sounds like it's a case of switched mounting points, try install from internal sd.

the problem is that it was accessing any folder, even in internal sd. I don't if the app was able to recognize that there was not a valid file inside the folder or was really a error.
i am almost giving up. Thinking in change only baseband, as i believe it is safer than chaging a rom.
i don't understand how/where the device was able to boot with a "new" rom after the reboot. I thought after clear data, cache and factory reset was like formating Windows in pc. And the last command when i was in clockwork was a simple reboot, not recovery, etc.

Did you put the .zip on your external sd card? In that case, you should go to mounts and storage and select mount sdcard. If it is already mounted, unmount and mount it again. It helps in some cases. Works for me at least, I cannot guarantee that it will work for you.
