If you want to have both worlds you can install on the MicroSD card and just remove the card to boot into stock nook. Me personally I had zero interest in the nook stock software so I installed on the eMMC memory.

I'm starting to understand (I think) now. So the autonooter sort of installed parallel to the existing B&N software as evidenced by still booting into the B&N system with the marketplace and installed apps available through extras.
The 'custom rom' method you are talking about replaces the B&N software altogether. Would you need to install a B&N app of some kind to access their store and/or read the books you have already purchased from them? What about resetting it to stock? I've seen the video where you unregister it and wipe it before doing the 8 failed boots.
I just looked at a video at unlocker -

Sorry for asking so many questions but this is new and very interesting to me. Realizing there is a way to enhance the NC that doesn't get blown away by B&N updates is enlightening.
If a type of custom rom is installed, is it updatable, as in applying windows updates, or is a new install required?
Thanks for all the help.
