I want to root my Nook 1.1.0 but it looks like it doesn't boot from SD card.
I tried couple SDs (2Gb and 4Gb) and burn them with couple images for Autonooter 3 (and 2 too as act of desperation).
I can see files on the SDs in Windows and in Nook.
I power off Nook completely with SD inside and plug it into the PC usb.
It supposed to run some script... I waited an hour and nothing happen.
Then Nook boots in regular Nook mode.
I assume that it's something with my SDs.
4Gb is class 4 SD. I burned it with different burner programs - result is the same.
Is there some way to determine that Nook boots from SD?
Maybe MBR is erased or something like this?
I formatted card in Windows and never did it in Nook.
So, I hope MBR (is it even used?) is OK but I want to be sure somehow.
Any suggestions?
What software are you using to burn the image onto the sd card?
You should be using winimage running in administrator mode.

Um you say the nook didn't do anything and then booted normally..... that sounds like it did everything right. Autonooter dose not show anything on the screen when you boot from it. you will get a blank screen for a bit and then it will boot to normal..... Have you checked to see if your nook is rooted?
I used winimage. I can see files in Windows and Nook.
Funny thing is that *.img file is so big but real files on SD are small.
I assume it's empty space what is in img file.

I assume it should show some Android stuff. Correct?
What I see is regular Nook screens.
therealguppy has a point. You may be rooted and not know it yet. Go into the apps drawer and look for the super user app. If it's there, you're rooted. Autonooter doesn't change your launcher or anything else so obvious.

There is nothing new here. 8 apps from Chess to Sudoku.
No super user app.
hmmmm... that is strange. As unlikely as you may think it would be, you must have goofed up a step. The nook color is, by way of hardware, hard-coded to boot to the Micro SD-card if a bootable partition exists.
It's crazy unlikely that your nook is somehow flawed and cannot boot to a sd-card.
I would first try and download and burn one of the SD-card bootable roms just to make sure that you are able to boot off of it.
Try this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=989637
OR
Burn a bootable Clockworkmod SD-card to also test that you're able to boot.
go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=922870
and get one of the "Download a bootable Clockwork SD card (128mb, 1gb, 2gb, 4gb, 8gb) here:"
If you want another set of step-by-step instructions, I have the time to write one up.
hi, im having the same problem as akizub and i think it may be booting from the sd card. ive tried rooting from all the different firmwares, ive tried different images, winimage, win32diskimage, ubuntu dd, ive even tried buying a new micro sd. i cant figure out whats wrong. ive seen all the youtube videos and instructions
Same Problem here with 1.1/auto-nooter 3.0.0
I'm having the same problem.
Don't think it's an issue with the SD card as I can see the SD files from the Nook after it boots
Wrote the SD using Win32diskimager. This must be working as I can see the files on the SD on both the Nook and the PC. Don't see how a block copy can miss anything!
I'm using auto-nooter 3.0.0
The Nook nook boot looks identical with or without the SD.
Maybe another level of security by BN ?
Just a crazy thought....are you making sure to have the correct versions?
Autonooter 3 NEEDS to be run on stock 1.1.... not 1.0.1 or 1.0.0.
Just thinking that would explain things.
Sent from my rooted stock 1.1 Nook with XDA Premium.
When all else fails, RTFM.
Versions OK
Yep .. Nook is at 1.1.0. autonooter 3.0.0
SD card is a 4GB SanDisk which other people seem to have used.
I'm assuming there is a low level loader in the Nook that attempts to load a boot block in a certain device order. Is it possible they changed that?
Yeah I am running into the same problem, I returned my nook for a few defects and now my new one won't boot from the sd card. Its running 1.1.0... one thing I have noticed that is different is that it seems to boot up faster than my old one did...
Edit:
Its working now, it wasn't partitioning the sd card for boot, was using my phone as card reader, switch to an actual card reader and new sd card and it worked.
Problem was solved.
It was fact that my SD was not bootable.
I tried something simple and reliable like CW recovery. Win32diskimager didn't want to burn disk complaining that it was too small. I tried to burn 1Gb to 2Gb, 4Gb and 16 Gb SDs and it was telling me - not enough disk space.
Then I used winiamge and was fine.
After I saw that CW was booting fine I burned autonooker again and then it started to work.
So, make sure that your SD is bootable by doing some simple and reliable image burning.
Hi
I purchased a nook yesterday and now I am eager to put a new rom on it. Unfortunately, during the autonooker process, something goes wrong and my nook boots straight up into the stock rom and then auto-mount the sd card to the computer. My nook is running 1.1 as I just got it yesterday.
I followed all the burning to SD steps and it appears to work as it burns with success and the files appear from the computer. I have also tried using an image of clockworkmod but I got the same result. I'm running Windows 7 64-bit.
Does anyone know what I may be missing or doing wrong? Much appreciated, thanks!
SOLUTION: Used a different microSD card reader for "flashing" the microSD card. Apparently my Samsung Epic cannot properly do this while my friend's can.
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

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.

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.

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.
So, a few days ago verygreen uploaded his emmc cyanogenmod install for Nook HD+. I was ecstatic but only got around to installing it today. Install went great up until after flashing the rom.The nook threw an error when trying to unmount the sd card (as per verygreen's instructions) "no problem, I'll just shut down the tablet" I thought. So I do so, remove the SD card, turn the tablet back on, and insert a seperate SD card for storage. The rom loaded up just fine and everything seemed normal. I downloaded and ran a benchmark to see that everything was up to par then went to take a screenshot (to compare to other versions later). A second later I looked at my notifications bar to see a message that the screenshot could not be taken because there is no SD card. After a short investigation I realized that the SD card wasn't showing up in my storage section. It showed up just fine in my computer and I've used the card in this nook before. Just to be sure I plugged the CWM card from earlier, sure enough it didn't show up either. As I'm not a complete novice I figured I should try reflashing before coming here. I did so and the nook seemed to recognize that the card was there! Wait, it now says the card is blank or in an unsupported filesystem. Checking the SD on the computer shows it to be in Fat32, which worked in all previous Roms just fine and clicking the notification to try and format also does nothing. Anyone have any advice?
Additionally I should probably mention that I am using the 05/05 Rom, which I thought was supposed to fix mounting issues

You make it sound like you are trying to insert the SD after you have booted to CM10.1. That won't work. You must boot with the SD already inserted so that it is recognized while CM10.1 starts up.

That didn't work I'm afraid. The message about the blank SD card is gone but it still won't let me save a screenshot. Gives a message about the storage being in use. Also, attempting to move an app to the SD card says there's not enough space... On my freshly formatted 32 gigabyte card that, once again, works and reads just fine on my computer. I will mention there is a header for the SD under my storage tab in settings, and it attempts to calculate the used space of the SD, however it does that whether the card is in or not. For that reason I don't think it means anything. Any other ideas? Because I'm certainly at a loss.

How did you freshly format the card? With Windows? You need to use a program named SDFormatter free on the web.
If you boot with no card in you will see that it does not show a card under storage, does not attempt to calculate, etc. There is something about your card it does not like. The hardware on the HD+ is notoriously faulty when it comes to SDs. Format it with SDFormatter, clean the contacts, make sure it is seated well in the slot and anything else you can do to improve things.

Update
I'm a moron. I failed to notice that the rom that the I downloaded actually was the 05/04 rom, the one with no bluetooth or SD mounting... In my defense verygreen hadn't updated his post (I downloaded from the one he linked in the body of his text, not at the bottom). *Sigh* Still though, I should have been paying more attention and if I had been less lucky I could have bricked my device. Anyways, after flashing the PROPER rom SD mounting works fine (though it was a bit finicky, requiring a reboot before finally working). Anyways thanks for your time, and sorry for giving inaccurate information.
what is the sd format allowed by hd+ in emmc?
I wanted to follow up on this thread by asking a general concluding question-
In order to use the sd cards directly in emmc, will the SD cards have to be in fat32 format only? Or can it be in exfat (or even ntfs)? According to a thread, somebody put a quote from the nook website that it can handle exfat.
The reason is that I wanted my nook to be able to read mkvs. I went through the sdformatter software, and it seems that it only formats in fat32.
TIA.

I temporarily had the same issue, but mine was caused by me tampering with /system/etc/vold.fstab to test a new swap I was trying to make. I changed a setting there and it would not recognize the SD and settings/storage crashed. So that tells me that your system is definitely not mounting the SD. It could be a faulty SD slot. Are you sure you are completely clicking the SD into the slot? Did the slot work well when running stock?
Edit: How does it act when you boot with no SD inserted? Does settings crash? And what happens if you insert the SD after it is booted to CM10.1? Does settings crash then?

You cannot move apps to SD with CM10.1. Apps2SD is not implemented.
And to access your external SD, you need to look in ext_sdcard. But CM10.1 on emmc uses the internal SD by default for everything. You can change that by flashing my swap SD zip from my HD/HD+ CWM thread linked in my signature. See item 4.

It is a Nook HD+ rom, and will not work on a non-Nook HD+ device. Try the roms in the Galaxy Exhibit development forum.
If This Helps Anyone...
I spent roughly 4 to 5 days' worth of working hours sitting here at my laptop, trying more and more frustratingly, to get my Nook HD+ to take the new CM Rom, and then dealt with about a dozen full 1080p HD movies I had already spent about 3 hours each to convert to .mp4 and the right size for my Nook, which now was not showing ANY of the content on my 32g SD card. Well, I tried all the formatting (using the SDformatter program), all the re-booting and putting the content directly on it through the Nook, and putting the files on it through my laptop, and I got nothing.
Finally, after noticing a theme among most of the users who were having problems specifically with SanDisk and/or 32gb sized cards, I took the awesome (and expensive) 64gb class 10 SDXC Samsung card out of my Note 2 phone, and formatted that one using the SDF program, and put it on 'exFAT', and after putting the blank card back in my Nook (powering it off fully first), I had to COPY THE FOLDER FROM THE NOOK'S MAIN STORAGE CALLED "MY FILES" AND PASTE IT INTO THE SD CARD STORAGE. Then, I opened it and made folders inside that one for Movies, Music, eBooks, etc... I then loaded the movies onto it via the Nook itself, making sure to paste the files into the SD folder. I also noticed that I needed to keep the Nook from falling asleep, and set it to the highest setting of time before it would go into sleep mode (30 min) and had to keep swiping the screen to reset that time. I also just loaded one large movie file or a few smaller video files at a time, because if the screen went off, or if I had videos loading onto the Nook for more than a couple minutes, then I would get the frequently reported error saying that it 'could not copy'.
After doing all of this, I was finally able to start a couple of my movies with minor problems. I hate how it says in the video player I was using, that you have to use the right side touchscreen to swipe on an invisible volume control up or down, and it was extremely sensitive but also not easy to control.
So, to review:
-Try using a different card other than SanDisk and 32gb
-DL the free SDformatter program and use that to format ANY card you put in your CM rooted Nook! Try to set it at 'exFAT' also.
-Power OFF the Nook before installing the new SD card.
-Then plug the Nook into your computer, and COPY-PASTE the file folder "My Files" in the Nook's MAIN STORAGE and put it into the SD card. Make folders inside this one to sort your movies, music, books, etc.
-Copy-Paste your files that are NOT eBooks from your computer into the new 'My Files' on the SD card. (I suggest using Calibre or another program to load eBooks into your Nook after you have gotten all the metadata correct for each book.) Keep the Nook 'awake' and do not allow the screen to enter sleep mode during loading of files. Make sure to load only about 3 minutes' worth, or no more than one LARGE movie file at a time onto the Nook, to prevent it from disconnecting and giving you an error pop-up.
That should do it, and if you have problems after this, then maybe ask around more. I only know how this works by my own extensive (and exhausting) trial and error...
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.
