Default Supertool for Nook Tablet

Alright, this thread is going to be dedicated to "Nooky" the supertool. What this script will do, is multiple things. Reset to factory firmware (exploit the /factory partition / bootcount.), Root, fix broken recoveries, and with root comes all of the mods for stock that I came up with. This is so then we can have everything in one tool without worrying about certain things. (also, after root, it could also install CWM recovery.)

Instructions:
I suggest that you have some kind of root shell. Either by using the adb hijack app I made found here or by being in recovery.

Extract the zip, and click "Nooky.bat" Ignore all other files, just click "Nooky" not nook and zergy. Nooky. Just needed to clarify. Anyway, then you just go through the menus and choose what you want. Enjoy.

*Note, you need to have an adb shell running as root on some of these options. So you may want to be booted into recovery off sd or something.
Features:
Root (includes nook and zergy script)
Md5sum check for recovery images.
Recovery flashers (root only.)
Reboot menu (Android and Recovery)
Reset nook to factory state (including /system and boot.) {8 failed boots method}
Auto device checker
More to come (maybe)

Download, screenshots, and changelog will be in 2nd post.

Thanks, it would be great if that tool has an ablility to resize the system partition of NT,
at the moment, users are only able to access 1GB via usb and repartitioning process is pretty complicated.
since there are CWM recovery img floating around the forum we can just reflash that after we repartition.

when you say install recovery, is this stock or CWM? If it is CWM, might I suggest a restore to stock flash as another option? or the reverse?

Other suggestions- stock image flasher? Stock image checker? check mounting of SD card? is it possible to use this tool to force people to boot from SD card by choosing an option here?

Just thoughts.

We should have full use of the storage on the Nook Tablet after the next release of the CM7 ROM that Celtic, Gonce and Indirect are working on, without changing partitions at all.
Repartitioning is kinda dangerous with these things, it's not like repartitioning an SD card or a PC. This tool is for prepping/rooting/factory-resetting a nook tab, among other things. I think it's going to be pretty important as a recovery/prep tool when everyone's flashing ROMs to their NTs.
