It should be able to boot from the SD card because the nook automatically boots from there first. Try installing the latest version of of CWM onto the SD card and do a factory reset from there.

Hi,
Issue: After rooting my Nook Tablet I inadvertantly rebooted into factory reset. I cancelled the reset but after this point whenever I boot the device the following occurs:
The nook copyright screen appearsThe reading forever screen flashes for a fraction of a secondThe download/restore indicator with the green arrow appears for a fraction of a secondThe nook tablet logo appears with an exclamation mark with the instruction to "Please restart your device and try again. If you encounter the same issue please contact customer service ..."
Attempted Fixes: Naturually I have tried rebooting resulting in the same process being repeated. I have also tried the acclaim_update.zip sd fix but have had no luck running it from the sd. I have also tried the 8 x reboot method to no avail. Any attempts to use adb have thus far failed (the device is not even detected properly).
I understand that everyone is busy but if anyone has any suggestions I would be much obliged. I do not live in the US so returning the device is extremely difficult. I run Linux and have an XP virtual machine available.
Thanks for your time
Have you tried booting cwm from an sd card and then reinstalling a stock rooted rom like this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1488035
Unfortunately no luck booting cwm from sd - I have not managed to get anything to boot from sd. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Did you try to boot from sdcard while connected to your PC with the USB cable?
Sent from XDA premium using my Nook Tablet
Update: Issue resolved - I ended up using AdamOutler's Ubuntu Wipe, which did hang indefinitely on the 'Overwriting sys with zeros' stage but did actually result in a factory reset.
Thanks to lavero.burgos and nba1341 for their assistance. I did successfully manage to boot CWM off an sd (my mistake was not formatting it as a boot partition), however I was unable to successfully flash any roms. Anyway I'm back to normal and ready to try again. Thanks all!
Hi Guys,
I really hope someone can help me out with this issue. I searched the forum and the internet but did not find any solutions.
My friend successfully rooted the Nook Tablet yesterday using a method that did not require an SD card. Today I was trying to install CM9 with ICS so I downloaded Nook Recovery Flasher.apk and flashed cwm. When I restarted my device got stuck into autorestarting loop. It shows the gray "n", which quickly followed by the clockwork recovery loading splash screen (the picture of the cardboard box). The device then shuts down and starts the cycle over.
I've tried holding the power and n button method but that doesn't work. I've also tried creating a bootable sd card but the device won't pick that up either.
I would appreciate any suggestions!
I've ended up bricking my 8GB NT a similar way. Ended up writing over my mmcblk partition with something I wasn't supposed to. Now stuck in a reboot loop, can't do adb, my phone isn't playing nice enough to where I can make a recovery SD.
BTW OP, from what I've read CM9 is only for 16GBs and will brick 8GBs.
Same thing happened to me a while back. I was able to create a bootable CWM sd card. From there you should be able to restore. If not, use the Ubuntu recovery.
Short answer: You're going to have to create a bootable SD card.
My 8gb nook boots but is stuck on the box screen. the screen has this kind of weird screen like it was broken or something. I just want to know how to fix it before my parents find out. i dont want to get in trouble. help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can you take a picture?
It may be just hung. Press and hold down the "power" and the "N" button for about ten seconds and release. That 'should' un-hang it and power it off.
Nook tablet
this is how it looks like i want it back to normal help! it happend when i installed the nook recovery flasher app. then i got on. then when i turned it off it started doing this forever.
I'm betting its a broken recovery. Can you provide a link to where you got the app from?
There's a few things you can do to fix it. What I would do is create an sdcard with the clockworkmod recovery img on it so you can boot into that from the sdcard. From there I would restore albert's stock rooted recovery via clockworkmod. Then you'll want to flash the internal clockworkmod recovery zip file via the sdcard version of clockworkmod.
I have the same thing but with a working recovery... I REALLY need to figure out how to fix this, any ideas?
If you can get into recovery, try flashing a rom and booting.
The new ROM gets stuck in a CWN bootloop on the white N screen.
Anyone know where I can find a flashable CWM file?

16gig NT recovery installed to 8gig NT. Here's a link to help you recover. Nook Tablet recovery is 16gig only.

Wasn't sure where to post this, so figured here was the safest option - just change it if it needs it!
Hey guys. I've recently bought a CnM Touchpad 7 inch (a10 chip)
It was running fine till i installed an app i believe it didnt like. now when I boot it all it shows is the android logo constantly on loop and wont boot into the OS
So i held down vol + and power on button for 10 seconds to go into 3e recovery
I've tried wiping the cache / reset option but it still reboot and is stuck on the android logo on constant loop
i've tried Recovery (not clockword mod) and there is a boot from SD card, problem is it wont read any micro SD cards I put on it
so because of this i cant put a rom on it to flash it.
I figured as a last resort i'd try connecting it to my win7 pc and hoping it'd pick it up as a USB drive to drag and drop the rom on that way (even without the micro sd card inserted) since it has onboard memory of around 6gb i believe. but win7 dosent recognise it and cant find drivers for it
Any suggestions? I'm really stuck here. otherwise i've just got a bricked tablet.
Kind regards if anyone can shed light on this!

Is it A10 processor or Rockchip??
I wanted to try TWRP recovery. I installed rashr app and installed TWRP latest on sd card then rebooted the tablet. It showed me N logo for a few seconds then turned off itself.
Now whenever i turn it on, it shows that N logo for like 5 seconds and turns off. When connected with USB, it keeps restarting. I tried removing the sd card, but no change at all.
Please tell me how to fix this.
Update
i got into clockworkmod 5.0.x recovery (made a bootable sd card) and installed old CM10. But still it keeps flashing only the Nook N logo & restarting forever. I guess my tablet is badly bricked. Is there any other way to fix this?
You need a version of CWM between 6.0.1.x through 6.0.3.x to flash CM10. See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=51377882#post51377882 for additional info/pointers on how to install CM10.x on emmc.
