[HOW-TO] Download, Run CM7 off SD Card (Easy to follow! No root!)

Re: [HOW-TO] Download, Run CM7 off SD Card (Easy to follow! No ro
Need help please. Just got my NC a few weeks ago and was able to install CM7 and market but somehow I accidently cleared the card. I have been trying for a week now to reinstall things but it just stops. I get to the final screen where it downloads the CM7 and gapps and shuts down. Then when I turn it back on it just goes through the same thing and shuts down again. Never gets to the flashing ANDROID screen. My NC just updated itself to the 1.4 a few days ago---is this the problem. I also tried using a different SD card just to see if that was it with the exact same results. I have tried many different CM7 files---stable,RC and nightly and get the same results. I am not very computer savvy but was able to get this work once and would love to get it going again. Any advice in non-tech terms is appreciated.

Format your card and start the install over. You already have the drives, adb, etc so you can skip that part. Just format card (boot into nook regular, goto sd card, and choose format). Then load img, cm7, etc as per directions. very easy now that beginning part is done.
1.4 doesn't matter. I just did same thing to my nephew's. upgraded to 1.4, and wiped his card (had old honeycomb attempt) and flashed all cm7 files. hardest part was getting market to show up. It finally just appeared after I connected wifi (weird).

talk about a "Duh!!" moment, the date and time under settings was hidden by the menu, had to scroll down and there it was. Thanks again.

What's the smallest card you can use? I have a 2GB that I'm trying to use (cannibalized my father-in-law's cell phone!) and I keep getting an out of space error with cm71 / gapps... maybe I've had too much egg nog..

This threw me off as well initially. A "gz" file is a compressed file. If you're computer does not have a program that recognized this, you'll need to download one that will uncompress it. I used 7-Zip. Use that (or another of your choice) program to unzip the image file (.gz) and you'll be back on track with these excellent instructions!

Now to start!
1. Create a working folder somewhere on your computer to put all of your files on for easy access. Within that folder, make 2 more folders, one titled "Imager", and one titled "CM7".
2. Go to your downloads folder, and unzip your Imager to the filder you created titled "Imager". Unzip all contents of the Imager there.
3. Unzip the Image file into your folder titled "CM7"
in step 3, what image file do i unzip to the cm7 folder?

Be a bit more specific. What OS are you using? What is the error? Is it giving an error?

Re: [HOW-TO] Download, Run CM7 off SD Card (Easy to follow! No ro
Got a NC for Christmas. Made a CM7 card very easily firsttry with these instructions. Excellent. I do have a question. I used a 4gig card because that's what I had lying around. Can I copy the contents of that card to another larger card at a later date? Or would I have to start over? Thanks.

I have a question.. If im running my OS from the memory card, will I still be able to save things on my internal memory? Or will it all have to be saved on the sd card
