I'm looking for the reversal of most guides out there, I want to run cm10 on internal emmc but want to have a bootable stock 1.4.3 of the NT software. I know I can have a backup of it and switch back and forth by flashing cwm then recovering the image, but that is so troublesome.

Can't have nook stock boot on a SD card, sorry. You can run cm10 on a boot able SD card though so it doesn't touch the internal storage.
Thanks for the reply, thats too bad but out of curiosity, aren't the concept pretty much the same?

Somewhat similar. Maybe it will happen some day, but as of now there are no ROMs for external.

Odin is a Samsung device thing. Similarly, hboot is for HTC and RSD is for Motorola.
Do you have an 8gb or 16gb model?
Sent from my Xoom using Tapatalk
8 gb and yeah i knew that galaxy was odinable thats why i wasnt sure how to do the rooting and a cooler rom to my nook if it was possible
thanks
Safest thing is to just use a CM7 Rom SD card.
is there a video that shows from step 1 how to flash a rom on the nook and how to get cwm on there? thanks
I'm not 100% sure but I am fairly certain there is no CWM for the 8GB NT and thus those users have been sticking to booting CM7 from an sd card.
Perhaps we should start a donation drive for it...

If you want to run CM7 from your SD card, here are the instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22199348&postcount=1
Just download both zips in the SD VERSION IMAGE section, write the image to your SD using the included tool, put SD in your NT, power on.

Well, since we're in the TABLET section and not the COLOR section that would make perfect sense... But why wake up such an ancient thread??
I've searched and i haven't. Really found anything explaining how to dual boot the nt. I have already rooted it internally using this method. But I'm not 100% sure how to dual boot. Any help and explanations are appreciated.
Which two ROMs do you want to dual boot?
I would like to use my cm9 and cm7. But stock nt would be fine too.
You can do CM9/CM7. However, you must flash CM9 internal and run CM7 from SD.
So firstly, go ahead and flash the latest CM9 normally using CWM.
Then write the CM7 SD Version .img to your SD card. After that's done, go to the first partition of your SD card and replace the flashing_boot.img with Cyanoboot's flashing_boot.img.
That way, when you boot with the SD in your NT, you have access to the Cyanoboot boot loader and can choose which ROM you want to run.
At least, this is the way I did it, and it has worked for me since the CM9 release.
Thank you so much. This is a huge help!!
No problem. Report back if you have any issues.
I wrote the image to sd card, then it formated, where do i download cynoboot bootloader? And where is the file i need to replace? Sorry, ive never done any of this before.
would it be a similar process to do 1.4.x and CM7 or CM9
I'm guessing yes, as long as you can burn img to sd card. I got cynoboot. But now it says that i have bad boot image magic (in memory) it wont let me boot.

By formatting, you might have erased the data on the boot partition of the SD card.
Moral of the story: Never trust Windows. It's always trying to mess up what you're actually trying to do.
When I don't format my nook says the card is damaged. Thanks for your help buddy. I'll just start trying to fix the problems I've found in cm9. Thanks.

Okay. I'm not sure why it wants you to format. It shouldn't need you to do anymore more to the card. Oh well.
I’m not really sure how this happened but I had my Nook Tablet booting CyanogenMod from its internal storage but now it will to only boot into ClockworkMod. Last time I had a problem with the Nook booting I followed the instructions I found on this webpage
raywaldo.com/2012/06/how-to-un-brick-a-nook-tablet-8gb-or-16gb/
but now this method is not working. After the Nook displays the screen that says “Please do not turn off your device, installing new software” it turns off and then I have to turn it back on again by pressing the power button. The Nook just goes right back into ClockworkMod. Does anyone have any ideas on what I could do to return my Nook to factory default software from this state or at least get CyanogenMod back?

Were you on stock OS? Custom rom? Custom kernel? Rooted stock? Cyanoboot? 8GB or 16GB model?
Cyanoboot and my Nook is the 16GB model.

Sorry, I thought Cyanoboot was the rom.
In the about tabler screen it says CyangenMod-7.2.0-RC-acclaim-Team-B for Mod version. Is this the rom?
Yes, you are on cm7. I thought you said you could only boot into clockwork mod?
Cyanoboot is a custom bootloader.
I made a bootable SD card to use for now since I can no longer boot from the Nook internal memory. I would like to be able to use the Nook without having to run off the card.

Okay well whatever you're booting off the sdcard for a rom really isn't applicable to fixing the internal memory.
Have you tried flashing a rom from the internal memory?
CM7 is what I had on the internal memory before this boot loader issue.
Since it's booting into clockwork mod, I tried installing some roms I downloaded and back ups I made from a 8GB Nook stock rom but they won't install. Says install aborted.

If I read this right, it sounds like you tried to restore backups from an 8GB model even though you have a 16gb model? I don't think thats what caused your issue or anything, but I'd just like to note that trying to flash roms/restore backups from different devices is a bad bad idea. The 8GB and 16GB models are, for all intents and purposes, different devices.
Now to address your problem. The fact that you can boot from sdcard is great. And with that knowledge, I would recommend using this method to reformat/reset your nook, allowing you to start over.
I tried to do the flashing of the 8GB back up rom to the 16GB after I had the problem so no, that is not what cause the issue. Thank you for the link I am downloading AdamOutlerUbuntuTotalReFlash.tar now and will let you know how it turns out.

Gotta read the threads man. This is how people end up in sticky situations. Read through the thread; I'm fairly certain the 16GB version was smaller than 1.5GB. I could be wrong but the context in which that mirror was posted seemed as if someone was mirroring the 8GB version that was in development.
Is this the 16GB gig one then?

If you get the red x during the repart it's usually a sign one of the internal partitions could be messed up. Not always the case though. Maybe it's the version you were flashing.
Did you try changing the internal partitions in any way? During the process of SD boot did you use the zip file that had SD boot setup?

Stock bn sucks, a lot in my opinion. I expected so much more when I bought it. Reason why I run an SD image. If you want nook books just download the app from Google play.

My initial instructions will work. If you don't know what you're doing really then use cm10. On the site I linked scroll down to fond the final release (12/31) and write the image file to your SD card. You'll be good to go afterwards.

There's a few guides on the "nook tablet general" thread that have instructions on how to internally flash CM. As I said if you don't feel comfortable internally flashing, then use the SDC image.
