Thank you for the image. Quick ?s. Will this image work for a NT, with CM7 running on SD card only, stock B&N 1.40? And can I use this without hooking up the NT to a computer? If so, do I just pop the SD card with the image on it and viola I am repartitioned and still have 1.40? Any help will greatly be appreciated by this newby chick. . .

I've used the image I posted on two NTs now and I've tried both methods numerous times on my NT. I haven't had a single problem (except for when I do it on purpose). Both of the NTs were stock, rooted NTs. I don't have CM7 and have little interest in setting it up so I can only certify that this does work on a factory NT. If you have an alternate boot manager or CWM or CM7 flashed internally then you may very well have problems. If you're booting straight from SD and nothing has been changed in the NTs internal memory then it should run with any problem.

I've used the image you kindly provided CRE. It is stuck on the "Please Do NOT Turn Off Your Device. Installing New Software..."

There is a picture of a Nook in the center and a green check mark in the top right corner. How long should this take (I'm assuming it reboots itself after finishing)?

Edit:
I found your post from the previous thread:

"When I was ready to go it took several times of pressing the power button (I probably pressed every combination possible out of desperation) before it came to life. It booted up and came to the "DO NOT TURN OFF YOUR DEVICE" (or similar text) screen and a red X was in the upper right corner. Where I'm used to seeing this message go away and the Nook prompting me to eject my card before turning the device off all that happened was it remained on the warning screen but the red X was replaced with a green check mark after a couple minutes. Being paranoid, I probably left it on that screen for 30+ minutes before I finally forced it off, took out the card, booted into CWM, restored my backup image and now I'm all set! (My serial number was uneffected despite all my clumsy efforts to kill this NT). I had 1.4.0 installed and this image was made using files from the 1.4.0 acclaim_update.zip."


Thanks to you, meghd00t, and all others involved!

Yes, it does seem to be a problem, as it does not execute the scripts from the boot card.

Hey, I have an 8gb NT sitting on my desk which is bricked. I'll check this out tonight. If it works, then for sure I'll request that my Ubuntu Recovery be removed and yours take its place in the stickies. I just ask that you consider making one for the stock partition tables.. that way it can be official stock and not just an unbrick.

Cre- re repartion image

Thank you for the feedback.

I have remade the images as per your instructions. Now you will get exactly what B&N gives you Only changes are in using the vfat portion of the sdcard to hold the factory.zip.

If you have some hosting then perhaps the original image with the ext3 partition for the factory.zip as per the details here http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...3&postcount=21 would also work. (now image attached here as bn_142_factory_recovery.zip )

Please review and let me have your comments
