@muyiscobobo If you got a Nook Color and not a Nook tablet and are on software version 1.2.0 than this will work. Unfortunatly I no longer have a NC so am unable to create videos for the latest software versions.

I am trying to do this but I cant seem to get the files to fit on the SD Card. The instructions say that I need to write to it but it wont work. It seems that all of the sites for the downloads are down.
@oKnASty10 Try using a seperate SD card for the root files. So exxentially boot up the nook color with the CWM SD card, then use the other SD card to flash root.
Worked like a charm! Tried for 2 days with the mac and was about to return it and get the iPad2, but your instructions made it work the first try!...Thanks!
@xray174 ya i tried to fix that, but i recorded with a Fascinate. I appreciate the comment and Ill see what i can do to get a little better quality. Thanks
Yes after running this you should be able to run MOST android apparently. PDF's are no problem as well as the ability to install Flash 10.2. Essentially after doing this you have converted you nook color into an ereader/android tablet. There's a link in the description that leads to detailed written instructions as well as the file link.
@caroleeloveshim, you need to have a bootable CWM sd card for this to work. Ill try to get a video up for that on Monday.

@aclcdigitalmusic I'm trying to get ahold of the developer to see if posting a direct link to the root files is okay. Posting links to software that you didn't develop is just bad manors. For now the download link is in the forum in the link.
@caroleeloveshim pretty much. The Nook color runs on heavily modified Android software anyway. This basically installs Google apps, and gives you the ability to go full on Android. I highly recomend CyanogenMod 7.0.2 for the Nook.
hey .. just a quick question .. never used any of these readers, but can I load and read any PDF ?"even if its scanned ? say a scanned book "pages are images not text " ? will that work ? thanx .
i just got a nook color and want to root it. Is this method still valid? Thanks.

At the install failed screen simply reboot your Nook and all will be well.
