Best rom to boot from SD keeping emmc stock?

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.

Nook HD+ willl not boot from SD

I created a CWM SD card (SanDisk 8GB Class 4) and it booted CWM just fine, I backed up and installed Gapps and rooted it. Everything was working fine except I wanted to get "incompatible" apps to work from the Play store so I edited the build.prop (it worked for me in the past).
Then the next time it booted it would just loop the nook boot logo, so I ended up resetting the whole thing (back to 2.0.2). Then I registered it and updated it and it works fine (just no root or gapps).
But the only problem is now it won't boot from the SD card no matter what image I use. It just boots normally as if there was no SD card. The only reaction I got was from using the boot files from N2A (last ditch effort) and all that did was go to a blank screen after the nook logo.
So that's where I'm at, I can still use the nook for what it is, but I'd rather have root and the play store
Thanks
Read my HD/HD+ Tips thread and you will understand why your edit to the build.prop did not work. You cannot modify any /system file without it resetting itself. In fact, I think I told you that in my universal root thread.
It can sometimes be difficult to get the CWM SD to boot from a cold start (powered off). Maybe yry reburning the card again. I find sometimes I have to just keep trying, reinserting the card and powering off immediately when you see it is not going to boot to the SD, and starting again. But don't do this more than 8 times in a row without letting it boot to stock successfully at least once or it will reset.

Funny you should say that, because I just tried over and over and reburning and eventually it took! haha I was trying all day and finally got it working.
Everything is going good now, is there any way to fix the incompatible app issue on the play store? For now I can just download them elsewhere, but it would be nice to get em from the store

Nope. Just get them from 1mobile.com or Amazon, etc.

I was having a hell of a time trying to get the new HD+ to boot. Finally got it working everytime on boot using a 2GB card. I was previously using a 16GB class 10 card. I'm fortunate to still have these old 4GB and 2GB cards laying around. So if any of you are having issues I recommended trying that.
I'm having a similar issue. I put the CWM image onto a 16GB class 2 sandisk card and my nook hd+ just ignores it and boots normally. I used winimage. Has anyone had success with the 16gb class 2 sandisk? I have a 1gb card but that did not work either.
I'm following the instructions in this thread.

When I try reading the sdcard in my laptop after putting CWM on it the laptop tells me it needs to be formatted. Is that normal?

Follow the directions in my HD/HD+ CWM thread linked in my signature. That is for stock CWM, but the procedure is the same.
It is not normal for Windows to say it needs to be formatted.

I formatted the card in the nook and made some progress with the rev6 sdcard tool, but the nook still ignores it when booting. The sdcard can be read on my laptop. I have lost.dir, mlo, u-boot, uImage, and uRamDisk. Only 8.3mb of the sdcard is used.
I noticed that when I tried to root the nook from the sd card, it will continuously boot regularly. I remember trying like 7-8 times and thought maybe it one on the nooks that would not boot from sd card no matter what.
I decided to format the sd card again and re-added all the needed files and somehow it just booted into the cwm screen. You would not believe how relieved I was not having to return it for another one.
I can only say be persistent and the sd card will get loaded.

Rev6? On an HD/HD+? That sounds like my Nook Color version. Are you sure you went to the right thread? HD/HD+ CWM thread?

I spent a couple hours trying to get my brand new HD+ to boot from a new SanDisk 64gb or an older Samsung 32gb. Neither booted - it'd always just boot to stock. For $9.99 @best Buy I got a PNY 4gb card with adapter. Formatted with SDFormatter, marked the partition active with MiniTool Partition Wizard. Copied the files linked in this thread. Under the "Obsolete Zips" section, I used the file:
NookHDplus-bootable-CWM-6028-for-stock-BOOTFILES-r4-(05.15.13).rar​
Extracted, copied to the SD.
Booted first try and several subsequent times. Enough to get my recovery & CM 10.1 all set.
Oops, I was looking at the nook color thread. I got it to work today on my 1gb card. I quickly ran out of storage, but I saw enough to be convinced to install CM10 on the internal memory. Thanks for your help.

[Q] Installing CM 10 on Nook HD+

I was installing CM from verygreen thread "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2032364" Nook HD+ CM10 development (sdcard) updated 5/11.
I am using a san disk 32gb sd, i followed the steps unzip cwm image and write it to your sdcard using Win32 Disk Imager as he linked. Did that and booted into the nook hd, mounted it no problems. I haven't used ADB so i turned off the nook as it says to do and went to put the cm-10-20130511-UNOFFICIAL-ovation-sdcard.zip on the sd card. One problem the sd card now shows 116mb only of the 32gb and with no option to reformat it to make it larger. I tried formating from CWM didn't do anything. Pleas help i read the forums link for about 30mins with no answer to solve this problem. Just seen pushing ADB which i'm not familiar with. Thanks for any help suggestions.
I have an install guide for that ROM. Look at my HD+ easy install guide linked in my signature. I have a new image file there to help you.

Thank you! One problem so far, i went and installed the cm10 and gapps on the internal sd. i rewrote the sd card with your 6028cwm.
Once i insert he SD it says on the bottom CWM v6.0.2.7 and it wouldn't mount the emmc to install Cm10. I rewrote the sd card again and it said it took and still same thing.
Also tried your newer ramdisk but i can not rename my old ramdisk.cwm once its in my computer.
EDIT: I was using the Micro to full size SD adapter and that was locking it. I took the Micro and put it right into a micro sd card reader and BAM! Installing now.
Ran into this problem where it just locks up on booting, I take the SD card out stock nook works great. Loads to 99% then nothing, just hangs. I let it sit for an hour even.

You are confusing me. This thread I'd for HD+. Yet you say the CWM said v6.0.2.7, which is for the HD. You should not be following my old guide if you are using verygreen's new SD scheme.... Oh I see your other comment was an old one....
The reason it stopped at 99% is the old SD version has too many partitions to allow stock to boot. It hands at 99%. To fix the problem, remove the SD before booting to stock.

With no SD card in it works great on stock nook. The problem i'm running into is it wont boot to CM with the SD in. I get the cynogen start screen then a laggy cynogen loading then it goes to the stock nook with the 99%.
So the problem i am having is i cannot boot to CM with the SD card in. Without the card it works fine.
With the card in its boots to CM screen and the circle loads choppy and then it swaps to the nook 99%.
I just want the CM to boot. Any help will be greatly appreciate it. I can boot to CWR and i did mount the SD card and still same problem.

You need to abandon that SD setup and start fresh with verygreen's new SD scheme. The old setup had some bugs. His new setup work much better. So go to his HD+ sdcard CM10.1 thread and start over with his early 7.1 cwm image. Then install his latest ROM and gapps and you will be very happy.

How to make SD card CyanoBoot menu work?

I have Leapinlar's SD card image installed on a SD card that I used to then install the EMMC version onto my HD+ which is working great, thanks to Leapinlar and Verygreen for that. Since I don't want to misplace the SD card I've left it in my Nook, but then whenever I reboot it, it boots off of the SD card and goes into the CWM on the card. I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to activate the Cyanoboot menu on the card so that I could choose to boot from the card, or the EMMC, and possibly change the default so that it boots to the EMMC instead. I realize that this might not be the right forum as it isn't necessarily a Nook question, so thanks for any help.
Edit: I should specify that I used the 4GB CWM SD card image in Leapinlar's thread, and is the one I'd like to modify. Thanks.
Ask and Ye shall receive.
Attached below is a .rar file that has four files in it. Extract those files to the boot partition of your CWM SD, replacing any duplicates. It will add the cyanoboot menu to it. It will by default boot to CWM, but if you want to boot to emmc (stock or CM10.1 on emmc), hold the n key and the cyanoboot menu will come up and you can choose stock. If you want it to boot to emmc by default, just change the Default Boot Device from "CM10/10.1" to "Stock". Then it will boot to emmc if you do nothing. Then you can boot to CWM by using the cyanoboot menu.
You rock, thanks!

I have the Stock BN rom on DS card and have 10.2 on native install.. but an i think as far as installing the dual boot menu i got that right..
but when i try to switch to the Stock BN rom living on the SD card it just says loading SD... but never continues to the BN boot animation.. or loads continues to login... it feels like a boot loop... do i have to have root access to get this to operate... i have 10.2 root but BN SD is not rooted... confused...
i would just like a boot menu to allow the option to boot to the BN SD card or default to native 10.2..
help?

Right thread this time! So this is dual boot thread (sorry about earlier Leapin!).
Took me about five minutes to get where I'd made my mistakes though even after finding this and trying again. Now that I understand how this installs, and that stock must be in emmc, I just have one question....do I place CM 10.1 on the root of my SD card as a zipped, or unzipped, file for it to load from the menu? Or is there still more to do other than just "sticking the file on there?"
I know this much...every day I have greater & greater respect for xda developers. To be willing to explain things so even myself can understand it a little - and put up w questions - has to be a chore in and of itself. Thank you!

First you need to go to verygreen's SD thread and make the early 7.1 CWM card. The put the CM10.1 zip on internal memory using stock. Then boot with the CWM SD you just made and after it finishes preparing the SD, install the zip from internal memory. Then you can use the files in this thread to put the cyanoboot menu on that SD.

Ok, I seem to be / was good until I got to installing zip from internal memory. This is what has happened so far.
1. Created 7.1 CWM SD with win32 disc imager ...No probs
2. Not enough room on external card to place CM 10.1 zip file even though I started with 16 Gb....so I assumed you meant load CM 10.1 to Nook HD+ internal memory from my PC...no problem there.
3. This is where I got stuck: 7.1 card booted up just fine, but then I wasn't quite sure what next step was...found "install zip from internal SD" and tried that, but of course it sent the update - apparently - to emmc, as Cyanogenmod spinner logo now comes up after reboot.
So my question is how do I need to go about installing from internal memory once CWM 7.10 is running. Is there an adb command I'l need, or did I just choose wrong option?

You used the correct menu item.
If you used an sdcard version of the CM zip, it should have put it on the SD. You can tell by popping the SD out of the slot and booting. It should still boot to stock if you used the correct version. Then when you put the SD back in the slot it should boot to CM.
If you have it correct, then use the files in this thread to add the cyanoboot menu so you can boot back and forth without taking the card out.

Missing memory on SD CM10 boot
First post so I hope I'm putting this in the right place.
I have a Nook HD+ 32GB
I' ve started with Leapinlar's
[CWM/ROOT/EXTRAS] HD/HDplus Stock Root and other Mods
I've then used verygreen's
[Nook HD+] CM10.1 development for sdcard last update 09/04
All that seems to be fine but in CM10.1
Settings - storage reports internal memory 1GB and no SD memory or available mounts
x-plore reports /storage/emulated/0 and /Root as 850MB free of 1GB
Without the SD card - reverting to stock - I have 2.44GB used and 26.56GB available.
Is the 1GB apparently available on a partion on the SD card? I only had a 2GB SD going spare - this now has three partitions, the boot files and two others, one of 1GB. If I'd used a 32GB card would I have 31GB free?
But, more importantly, can anyone tell me how I get CM to give me my 32GB of internal storage back?
Please?
FWIW I expect to run CM10 from internal memory in the long run, but want to be sure that a couple of critical apps run OK before replacing the B&N stock.

Everything is as it should be. You only have 1GB for 'sdcard' since you only used a 2GB SD. If you had used a 32GB, you would have close to 31GB for 'sdcard'.
And on an SD install, the internal memory is still there but not as 'sdcard'. It shows as a folder named 'emmc'.
Since you are planning on installing CM to internal memory, it will be even different yet. 'Sdcard' will be your internal memory and your external SD will be shown as ext_sdcard.
And do not pay too much attention to the settings/storage. People get very confused when reading that since it mixes apples and oranges. (Media storage and app storage).

Finally...it worked! Thanks leapinlar, for all your help!
I encountered the situation above and am wondering if, say, instead of the 2GB card I use a 16 GB...that gives me 16 GB of storage for the CM 1.0 tablet, and my regular flash storage also stays 16 GB? Or all the apps are by default stored on the emmc?

On the SD install, both media and apps get stored on the SD. If you use a 16GB SD to install CM to, it will have about 15GB available for media and app storage instead of 1GB on the 2GB card. But 2GB is really too small to be running CM. You will be running out of app and media storage very quickly.
Since you will be dual booting, when booted to stock the media and apps will be stored on internal memory. You will either have 13GB or 28GB available on stock on emmc depending on the size of the device (16 or 32GB model).

Updating SD version of CM 10.1
I know I've seen this elsewhere, but can't find it...if I go to update the rom on the SD card, it makes sense to me that I would need to load the latest SD version from verygreen's page...or can I just update from settings and not lose dual boot? Also, will a dirty install work so that the data is not lost? (backups are always good )
Man we're enjoying dual boot. My Acer a500 is unreliable so I backed the "build a city town park" up with Helium app. Long story short, with dual boot my kid and I get to continue building and enjoying our monsters in "Monsterama Park" by booting to CM 10.1and restoring data, yet I don't have to give up some of the reader features that I really like with the original Nook OS. Marvelous find....again, thanks y'all for the hard work!

Do not use settings to update an SD install. It will try to put the new ROM on internal replacing stock. Go get the latest SD ROM from the verygreen thread. You can dirty install it with the SD install's CWM.

So there is no way to switch the menu for stock on sdcard?

I'm a little confused. I've put verygreens stock on sdcard and have cm 10.2 on emmc. If the images are renamed can you boot with the menu into stock on sd or cm 10.2 from emmc? If not is there a second solution?

[Q] Having Trouble Creating SD Card with CM7 for Nook

I need some help with creating an SD card to boot android from on a Nook HD.
I tried this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1000957
I used an old 8gb sandisk micro SD i got from a cell phone
Used win32 disk imager and flashed generic-sd card image onto the root of sd card
Then I took out the card and re-inserted it to get it recognize the new image as F:boot which has 4 files on it MLO U-boot, U ram disk, and u image
Then I went to install CM 7.2 files onto the SD - that's where i ran into trouble. It gave "Error No Room on Disk". I looked at the space on the Sd card and it said it was only 113Mb. _Please help. What did i do wrong when flashing the image file onto SD card to make the sd card smaller?
Thanks in advance for your help.
You have really got things mixed up. This is a Nook HD/HD+ thread and you linked to a Nook Color thread (they are different devices). CM7 does not run on the Nook HD. No wonder things are not working for you.
If you truly have a Nook HD, find a Nook HD thread for installing CM to SD (has to be CM10/CM10.1/CM10.2 though).

Thank you for the reply. I checked and yes I do have a Nook HD 8GB. I got it from walmart for $129.
So just to confirm - No CM7 will run on Nook HD?
Can you install CM 10 without rooting the device? And if so, is a non-rooted install that runs directly off the SD Card significantly slower than it was flashed to internal memory?
If CM 10 has to be installed to the internal memory, are there dual boot options that would keep what i have on the nook saved?
Also, I noticed when i tried to put CM7 on the SD card, it created a 113 image file, and left the remainder of the disk as "unallocated" - so during the install process how does that unallocated space get turned into usable space?
Any link for the build I need would be very appreciated. Not trying to get anyone to do the work for me, with all the different builds and install files, its complicated for a first timer.
Thanks for help

No, CM7 will run on the Nook HD.
You do not have to root stock to run CM from SD. You can run CM10.1 from the SD and leave stock intact. So you can boot back and forth. If you do, I recommend the hybrid install here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=36668001
It runs more quickly and has more stability. But be warned the instructions can be confusing.
There are no dual boot options that allow you to fully install two systems to internal memory.
And that old Nook Color SD that you used is different than how the Nook HD SD is installed. But you do have to follow directions to get everything to work and fit.
