Root Stuck in boot loops

So my friend just got a new NOOKcolor

we successfully rooted it with Auto-Nooter

I was trying to get ADB to work and decided to reboot

now it just repeatedly gets to "Touch the Future of Reading" screen and reboots

I've 'tried' the 8 interrupted reboots but I have yet to get it to restore to anything

I was able to SSH in to it and tried to fix the BootCnt file per a set of instructions on the web (the commands appeared to work but - I'm still at boot loops)

The last resort is just to return it back to Best Buy and wait till the rest of the Android tablets come out...

but I have to imagine there's a way I can restore it somehow - maybe load a new image on to an microSD card or something....

I've had no problems with anything else I've rooted (3 Droid Incredibles, Droid 1, Droid 2)
