Trying to get my hands on a Windows box to reformat the Nook, but in the interim: every time that the Nook does get recognized by Calibre and start the long scan, it now consistently runs for about 3 hours and then fails with this error:
Code:

ERROR: Error: Error communicating with device

Not sure if that leads to any conclusion beyond "reformat" but thought I'd share it just in case.
