i installed 10.1 and upgraded to 10.2 on my nook hd. I downloaded the cm 11 recovery and cm11 rom and gaps to my nook to upgrade to kitkat. After i downloaded the cm 11 to my nook, the updater took me to recovery. i installed the cm 11, but then had problems. I realized that I was using the cm 10 recovery , and should have installed the cm 11 recovery before I attempted to flash the new rom. I then wrote verygreen's sd card image for cm11 and it did boot into recovery. when i tried to install the rom, the device said it couldn't mount the sd card. i tried using the cm 10 recovery image and that didn't work either. same message, couldn't mount sd card. I then formatted cache, data, boot, did another wipe and same issue. currently, it takes a long time but the nook hd will boot into cm recovery, but same issue about not able to mount sd card. I checked similar threads for other devices, but I couldn't find any solutions. I called barnes and noble customer assistance and they were totallyuseless. My question is how do i get recovery to mount my sd card?
ditto
I had the same issue on my nook hd-
When I wrote the image to the sd card- I could boot in to CWM 6.0.4.6, from that sd card- but it could not mount the sd card, or find any files on it. so I couldn't flash the emmc version. When I pulled that sd card out, it reverted back to cwm 6.0.3.2 (which worked fine with cm10.1) but again, it still can't find the sd card.
/sdcard is the internal sd and while is mounted and navigatable, it's blank and there's nothing to install from it. (is there a way to copy to it from some other device?)
the other option is to install a zip from /storage/sdcard1 but that does nothing but pop up
E: Can't mount /storage/sdcard1
or
Error mounting /storage/sdcard1

I've been following and using the info in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2600572
I've used both a linux machine with dd and a windows machine with Win 32 disk imager for flashing images.
I've tried a variety of file systems (does anyone know what is the preferred file system for a grossly oversized micro sd card for CM11?).
I've tried to find a newer better version of CWM, and have found references to a 6.0.4.5b but haven't actually found the files yet.
have also tried sideloading with adb, but the device is never found. with either version of cwm
Would be ok moving back to cm10 as well, but as long as it can't find a SD card, I don't know how.
love this little device, would greatly appreciate any assistance.

after much banging of my head against the wall, I discovered that if i let it boot to the 6.0.3.2 on its own, it would let me mount the sd card that had the initial image written onto it.
So i loaded the new cwm zip and flashed it.
pulled the sd card out and had to let it reboot on its own 4 or 5 times before it popped up emmc CWM based recovery 6.0.4.6
..which then let me mount the sd card as /external_sd and I was able to flash the latest cm11 nightly (yes, I'm a glutton for punishment).
I've pulled the sd card out and rebooted...
AND IT'S BOOTING!!!!
...this is awesome.
Success
i changed sd cards and downloaded the recovery, rom, and gapps on the new card. Recovery was able to mount the new card and I got everything installed. Initially recovery aborted the rom installation, so I downloaded another cm10.1 and was able to flash it. So everything is good now.

Hi,
I am having an issue that I'd hope you would be able to help me with. I flashed CyanogenMod10, and everything was doing fine, smooth performance, reboots with no problems, but then suddenly one day it went bricked. I restored through the SmartFlashTool Method, and got back to the stock Rom with everything working except for the SD card.
I have tried out various stock ROMs and none seemed to recognize the SD card, outputting a message of "SD card removed. Please insert a new one."; getting on to ADB when trying to mount the SDcard I get this message "mounting /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 on /sdcard failed: No such file or directory", and while trying to mount the SD card in CWM Recovery, it tells me "E: Can't mount sdcard", and when I try to mount USB storage through CWM, I get "E:Unable to write to ums lunfile(no such file or directory)", and when trying to mount /sdcard on CWM I get a "Error mounting /sdcard" message... I hope people at XDA would be able to help me since I have been lurking through the forums and internet without any good answer. :highfive:
I was able to mount the SD card through ClockWorkMod Recovery v5.0.2.6, but again, barely at random times when it works, and after installing a ROM those times, the phone usually works for one hour or two and then gets bricked again. I can not have access to another CWM version since I need an SD card to flash it. To install CWM I am using a patched .bin and .fls files in the SmartFlashTool method of unbricking. When the SD card gets recognized, I can even reboot the phone and still get the SD card to be recognized. The SD card problems don't happen until the random bricks after flashing a ROM. :fingers-crossed:
I have also tried using several functioning SD cards of different capacities formatted in NTFS, FAT32 and exFAT with no luck. I am also not willing to go back to stock since it is buggy and lags a lot compared to CM7, CM10 and every other custom rom I have tried. :crying:
Thank you for any help you could provide me, or if you have any answer for this problem,
Pablo Lujambio
Firstly when you get access to sd card with cwm or anything get your files backup to your pc.Than try format your sdcard in settings menu on your phone.Did you tried format your sdcard in settings menu?

Yes I did try that last time but I only seem to get a "Can't mount sdcard" error. I haven't been able to get the phone to recognize any SD card on v10a, v20a, nor v20b stock roms.
Hi, I just got my HD+ back ,
and wanted to put cm10 on it .
I follow the step
stuck at the last step .
I flash the cwm img to sdcard.
nd+ reboot with cwm but not Usb connection. win 7 64bit said it is invalid device, driver install is fail too.
so I turned to ubuntu . I browsered the developer thread
someone said in linux, only need is puting the cm zip to cm10sdcard partition for your sdcard.
I am not quite understand this part ?
in linux, I only saw one partition FAT 32 label : boot. size about 120Mb
the other is unallocated.
here is what i tryed.
1. create a sdcard parition :FAT 32 label sdcard
put sdcard back. the cwm said can not Mount sdcard.
2. since I can connect the hd+ to pc . I adb push the cm zip to sdcard on the devices.
but install zip for sdcard and internal memory still show can not Mount /sdcard and /emmc/
:crying: Can some one give me a hand ? thanks a lot
BTW, is it possible the problem of sd card my is sandisk 16gb class 4
[Update] it seem like my sdcard have problem. can not get cm10sdcard partition. so thanks.
install Cm10 problem
Use a larger(preferably 8 gb or larger) micro sd card.Follow instructions by Verygreen in original post.
When you burn image to the card ,it will creat 4 partitions,but you will see only first(boot) partition on Windows PC.
Now boot into Ubuntu,either from cd or installed on your pc.
Now insert the card into your pc.
Yowill be able to see all 4 partitions.
Transfer ROM zip file and G Apps zip to CM10 (last) partition.
Take out the card and isert into Nook HD and reboot into recovery(pressing power and N key when it is starting to power up.
Install zip files,ROM first then G Apps and reboot.
You have working CM10 on your card.
If you want to boot into B&N software pull the card out,withe card inserted it will always boot into CM10.
Well after flashing anders' cm and flashing the boot, i started getting damaged sd card error while booted up. I've tried changing recovery, vold.fstab, hboot, kernel, radio; nothing works. When i boot into recovery and try to install from sd card it tells me there's an error mounting /sdcard but when i do usb storage it comes up on my computer so i don't think its a faulty sd card, any ideas? Thanks

Try flashing twrp recovery and then my SD card fix or another rom
Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda premium
I tried through twrp and it reads the sdcard but not the same one as the one that gets mounted on pc, i even tried to adb push the zip's into /sdcard which twrp read but when i tried to flash it it gave me the mounting error. Now i reinstalled your cm by pushing the zip into /data, i'm going to see if it doesn't work i'll flash another rom.
After installing your cm i installed the other cm build which gave the same error, then i pushed total senseless into /data and installed and when i booted up it gave me sd card error again but when i formatted from there it formatted sd card, now i booted into recovery again and sd card is working perfectly and i once again flashed the other cm build and all is working correctly. I guess the problem was that cm couldn't format my sd card which is weird because i had tried and succeeded to format it to fat32 through pc.
Also, do you have an eta for when you'll have working camera on your cm build? Thanks for the help

Good to hear it is working again. As my cm9 rom is only a port and onejay09 is working on a cm9 compiled from source the port will not get any update. It was only mean to be a sneak peak until someone compiled cm9

ok
CWM Recovery won't read my SD card. I've wiped factory data, but can't install the new ROM because it won't read the card. The files are zipped, the SD card is in the slot, and the files are on the EXTERNAL card, not internal. Any work arounds? I need help, since I'm now out a phone until this is resolved.

What is "apply sdcard:update.zip"? Do I need to run this first?

When to "- mounts and storage", clicked on "mount /sd-ext." I got an "Error mounting SDEXT:!

What rom are you on now? Does the version of cwm your using have the option to install zip from ext sd? If not I don't think you can. Put the zip on the internal sd by plugging into a pc that has the captivate drivers installed and from recovery go to "mounts and storage" and mount usb. that should allow you move the zip onto the internal sd.
You don't need to use update zip.....you will always get that error trying to mount ext sd from mounts and storage. I always have anyway, not an issue.
Edit: just tried and I can mount ext sd, but I remember I couldn't in the past, so knowing your rom/kernel would help. There are multiple threads on how to flash roms and I'm betting one of those, especially one for the rom/kernel you have, and want to flash, could explain in better detail than I can how to successfully flash.

Wiping and factory reset shouldn't mean your phone is dead. You should be able to boot the phone into normal operation, then copy the zip from your external storage to internal, if mounting in recovery is a problem.
Did you uninstall ROM manager as I suggested in your other thread? It just doesn't work well on Captivate and you can see threads here where people get into trouble with it.
If you are stuck with CWM recovery and cannot boot normally - then read on
It's not SD-ext. Which mounts are listed in the CWM mount menu on yours?
Depending on where you are in the upgrade process, it might differ.
What version of CWM recovery are you running - it is on the first screen you see.
You may see USB storage, which refers to your internal 'SD Card' and you may also see emmc which may refer to your external SD card, the one in the slot on the back, above the battery.

Here's the update:
I used the USB connection this morning, and I was able to complete the flash process. Everything went well, other than the phone will not recognize my SIM car. It also reboots every 5 minutes, so I guess I have a few bugs to work out. I'll start searching these issues.

I compiled ClockworkMod myself and flashed it to my P970 running CyanogenMod, but now I can't flash zips. When I try to mount the sdcard, I receive an error: "E: cannot mount /sdcard". This device's storage is of course located in /storage/sdcard0, so I suspect that might be the problem.
I don't think that this is the problem. Try to clean sdcard then reboot in recovery. If it doesn't mount, share your recovery with me, I will test if it works
I formatted the SD card from inside CyanogenMod, but now I can't mount it at all. If I choose "Mount SD card" in the settings, it briefly flashes the stuff on the card, and then says "Safe to remove SD card". I performed a factory reset, but it still doesn't work.
What version have you compiled?
//Edit
I remember that to get a fully working recovery for our device you need to edit some files in the device tree, maybe you need to edit some .fstab files or BoardConfig.mk, Evisceration has already compiled cwm for p970, you could ask him for help.
//Edit2
To edit .fstab files (maybe you should edit recovery.fstab) look at gingerbread's device tree.

6.0.3.6, but that doesn't solve the problem with the SD card, which I now can't mount at all. I tried plugging in the USB cable but my computer can't see the card. I may just have to buy an adapter from PC to SD. This thread: android.stackexchange.com/questions/55182/cannot-mount-sd-card-with-error-sd-card-safe-to-remove says to format it with a PC, but that's for a different device.

Do you mean that you can't mount it even when you're running Cyanogenmod?
Yes. After I formatted the SD card, I can't mount it even in CyanogenMod. In the settings, I select "mount SD card", but it doesn't mount, and I get a notification "Safe to remove SD card".
It could also be a hardware problem, just to be sure send me your recovery or post your sources.
//Edit
I have compiled cwm 6.0.4.6 using 4.3 device tree and everything works good.

EDIT:
So, the good news is I solved the main problem. I changed the file "recovery.fstab" to have the other possible partition for the SD card, recompiled, and flashed. Lo and behold, it worked! I can now flash zips from the SD card in ClockworkMod.
But I still can't mount the SD card within CyanogenMod. I know I can flash zips with
Code:
adb sideload
if need be, but I would still very much like to be able to store pictures, etcetera, in that 8 GB of space.
EDIT 2:
I went to the store and bought myself an SD card adapter. I used that to format the card, but now I can't even access it from ClockworkMod.
I flashed your recovery and SD card works.
Which file system is your SD card using now?
If you flash a stock based rom from sideload, can you format SD from settings?
I bought a new SD card for $28 and everything works now. Note to self: never format SD card again.
