Newbie back in the Game
I have been away from rooting for about 5 months, so I need a quick refresher:
My Verizon Galaxy Nexus 4.2.2. has an unlocked bootloader but is not rooted; which link am I using:
Thank you

Can't mount /sdcard/
I am in recovery but can't mount the /sdcard/ ... I checked the forum and see a variety of threads and post but none within this thread.
Did anyone experience this issue and what is the solution?
Thank you.

Thanks ... Try Again in Week
Okay, I am on 4.2.2 and either I don't have the brain power or patience. I got as far as unlocking, and pushing superuser to the sdcard ... still can't mount the sdcard and really have not figured out a strategy or approach to get this task down ... I will keep searching

This was an absolute LIFE SAVER!!!! I seriously thought I made my phone a paperweight. As soon as I tried your tool, it worked flawlessly right from the start.
Only thing that I did notice is that when using this on a Verizon phone, when rooting and adding Super User, it won't show the UPDATE file in CWM. I had to manually moving the file to the SD card, and then boot back into CWM to flash it. Other than that it was perfect.
My phone wasn't being recognized by my computer, and was wiped of the ROM, recovery...everything! This put me back to stock, and now i'm happily running Beanstalk 4.3.1
THANK YOU!
