I have been trying to get help at cyanogenmod forums for a few days and no luck, so I found a few threads here and wanted to see if you guys could help me.
Background: I purchased a used Nook Color last week, and found root procedures and how to install CM7 on you tube. Followed it and bricked the Nook. UGH. Found restore reformat and repartition threads at XDA and restored the Nook back to stock. Found a useful thread on how to install CM7 on a SD card and load it that way, which is awesome, it took me 7 tries and then it finally installed and got the app bug worked out. Problem I am having now, is that NO matter what I do, I cannot get the thing to boot into recovery to install things, like custom mods, ect. funny thing happened last night, when I removed the SD card and hit the power and N buttons, it booted into CM recovery. Not through the SD, through the nook. But it was supposed to remove CM recovery from the tablet when I re did it. Come to find out when I was using ROM manager, in apps, it flashed CM recovery to the Nook not the SD card, when I went into it. I have tried rebooting and holding the power and N button and releasing the power button and holding the N button still, and it boots normal, I have tried holding power and N and it shuts off after a few seconds trying to reboot. I have tried every combination I have found searching the internet.
How can I boot into recovery using the SD card? I am using CM7 7.0.2
Any help would be appreciated!! Thanks
