[Q] CWM cant install Cyanogen 7 - Am I missing something?

I have searched for a few hours and can't find anyone with a similar issue.
I have my 2.2 captivate rooted and unlocked with CWM and TB installed. Got the Cyanogen 7 zip install on my sd card.
Loaded CWM Recovery and backed up my rom.
Restarted and went to CWM to Install Rom from SDCard
It doesn't point to the SD card, however. It starts in the Internal storage, so i choose external_sd/ then the update file
it boots into recovery, formats the phone, but gives me the "No such File or Directory" message with the path set to SDCARD External SD Update.zip(Cyanogen install)
So it thinks my internal storage is my SD card?
So its pointing to the wrong directory, but i cant find an option anywhere to make it go through the right directory.... help?

sorry, mods please delete.

It is installable througn CWM,

Harder way:
Make sure you're running a Eclair/Froyo Firmware (2.1 or 2.2) and Eclair/Froyo Bootloaders!
Root your device and install ClockworkMod Recovery.
Do a Nandroid backup!
WIPE (wipe data/factory reset + wipe cache partition)
Install the ROM from internal sdcard using ClockworkMod Recovery
Optionally install the Google Addon (through ROMManager is easiest)

Try taking out your external sd before you flash, and if you have anymore problems post in the CM7 Q&A thread

Just copy gapps to internal sd and flash from there, or go into recovery/ mounts and storage and see if you can mount it there

No, the phone doesn't see the internal sd .. when i plugged it to my laptop .. i saw the internal memory

I flashed back to GB 2.3.3 and rooted it and then went to recovery mode to install AOKP again ... and it rebooted and opened the phone before i be able to install gapps!!!!
As the instructions say .. flash Milestone and then flash gapps and then reboot?!!!
why did it reboot before i flash gapps?!!!!!!!!!!
And when i go to recovery mode to flash gapps .. it gives me the same error
'error mount /emmc'

you did put them on internal sd?
Can't you just reboot recovery and then flash gapps?

I put them on the root of sdcard ... and install the Milestone on the recovery by 'Install zip from sdcard' and it worked fine
and after the Milestone finished the phone rebooted by itself .. and when i go to recovery again to install gapps .. it tells me 'Error mount emmc'

But if they are on internal sd you don't need to access emmc that is your external sd card

I think your problem is your trying to "Install zip from sdcard"
you have to Install from "Install zip from Internal sdcard"

Where is it?
Where can I find this one?

at this stage I'm going to suggest a clean install from gb, here is my recovery kit if you want to try it, unzip it, read the .txt instructions, with diagrams, then proceed.

Nook loads blackscreen (partition issues)

I reverted from the dual poot through internal partitions.
The dualboot was set up via this topic.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1275859
After that I ran the revert dual boot zip and then used the customer partition setup from this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1094371
Suddenly, I could only boot to cwm. No matter what boot option I would choose, cwm would load. It would let me flash roms but I could not boot into them. I eventually got around this by re-installing cwm using rom manager from a rom running on an sd card.
That created a new problem. Every time I tried to boot, it would not mount emmc. I tried installing the rom MiRaGe. This had the strange effect of mounting my sd card as emmc and my internal drive as my sdcard
I found this guide and tried to restore my partitions back to original
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=25354258#post25354258
I am using the cwm from that thread as well. I am back to booting into a black screen no matter what rom I use.
Are there any suggestions on what I can do next?

Sounds like you have your partitions pretty messed up. Go to my partition repair thread linked in my signature and follow the guidance there, including doing the partition 2 repair. Do not forget to format the partitions immediately after the repair zip is run.
That swapping of emmc media and sdcard is a setting inside of CM7. It is intended for users who have no SD and want to use emmc media as sdcard.

Thank you for your help.
Here are the steps as I read it and the order in which I did it
1) Flash sd card with CWM-5.5.0.4-bootable_SD.zip
2) Copy NookColor-emmc-format-partitions-5-6-7-8.zip, NookColor-emmc-repair-partition-2.zip, and NookColor-emmc-repair-partitions-1-4-5-6-7-8.zip, and update-encore-cwm.5.5.0.4-emmc-racks.zip.
3) Boot into cwm from sd card
4) install zip "NookColor-emmc-repair-partitions-1-4-5-6-7-8.zip"
5) reboot system
6) install zip "Copy NookColor-emmc-format-partitions-5-6-7-8.zip"
7) reboot system
8) install "NookColor-emmc-repair-partition-2.zip" (This does report success)
9) reboot system
10) install "update-encore-cwm.5.5.0.4-emmc-racks.zip"
11) reboot into cwm

Now that I am boot into cmw (I took out the sd card before boot to make sure it installed properly,) I follow these steps
1) Install rom and gapps (encore_CM72-MiRaGe-09302012.zip) It reports sucess
2) Boot into black screen.
Can you tell me if I am missing a step or if I am doing one of the previous steps incorrect?
****edit - I seem to be able to install cm9.
I'll report back after testing it out.

You did everything right. You may have had a bad download of the mirage zip.

Never, ever format the system.
If you're on stock just do that:
1-Reboot in recovery
2-Choose Wipe data/factory reset
3-Flash cm rom
4-Flash gapps
5-Reboot
Done, that's it.
If you want to update cm roms (or any rom):
1-Reboot in recovery
2-Flash cm update
3-Choose Wipe cache & dalvik cache
4-Reboot
Done.
You don't need to mess up with anything more.
P.S. better use twrp 2.7 from novafusion, for better compatibility.

Thanks but it still doesn't work. I want to flash the rom but the rom file its in the external sd card and it says that there are no files found. And when i hook up the phone to my pc the phone is detected, however I can´t acess the sd card.
Maybe if there's a way for me to acess the ext. sd card and change the rom file for the internal memory it would work. Do you know how can i do this?

Euhm, it might be a weird idea, but you take your external SD-card, put it in your card reader, connect the card reader to your pc, and copy the zip to (let's say) the root of the SD-card
CWM should be fine, but I'm used to TWRP. You can find it on the novafusion website. (search novafusion TWRP)
If you can't boot into CWM or TWRP, or files still don't show up on the browsermodule in the recovery rom, you still have the possibility to flash your ROM using odin. Check the installation guide on novafusion, it gives you a link to all the files you need and a detailed description how to install your rom.

Nook HD Plus - Only boots to SD recovery

My EMMC became corrupt I think after it tried to do an internal recovery.
Now the only thing that boots is a CWM recovery SD card. However I can not install any zips as it does not mount ext SD, nor internal SD cards. It does not mount Data, or System.
Not sure how to solve as it will also not boot a full SD Card image.
What are the next steps to solve? I assume getting the EMMC partitioned and recovery and boot put back on the device?
Saw a similar thread about the HD, but it only had a hard coded link for a hummingbird downloadable:
flashable_fix_bootdata-hummingbird.zip
Does someone have a link to the ovation equivalent?
Thanks,
Rick

i was having a problem installing cm13 as it kept rebooting to the recovery screen.
i wiped all the cache's and reinstalled everything multiple times.
Then i found out that the emmc was not the image that i needed and grabbed the newest nightly image.
i copied it to my sdcard as a zip and installed it as a zip along with my other zips from the recovery screen.
it now runs fine.
i hope this helps you.

Please give details
