This issue has occurred for me as well as for my sister whose Nook I'm trying to get back to stock. It says "Installing update...E:Error in /data/media/NookHD-factory-2.1.1-plainstock.zip (status 6) Installation aborted) This was a new download I just got from Lepinlar. Same thing happens when I tried flashing back to MY 2.2.1 stock before the KitKat OS worked finally. Her Nook runs CWM10 and mine ran CWM11 and I used an 8gig SD card that had previously worked for me before. Thanks guys!!

What version of CWM are you using? You said you had been using CM11 so you are probably using too new of a version. You need a version older than v6045 to flash the plain stock zips. You can get the older versions at my HD/HD+ CWM thread linked in my signature.
