(That's why I always pretend that you've got a Windows desktop as the prompts are less ambiguous. C:\> means desktop, even if it's Linux.)
"su" only works for Magisk. The regular system does not have it, my recovery doesn't need it.


Hmm, maybe it doesn't.
Code:
# mkdir /system
Thank you very much for the quick reply Renate!

The su for the Android shell makes a lot more sense now. I also didn't realize that to mount the system, I should also be in the shell. I was able to download my wallpaper onto the Nook and hopefully mounted it. This is what I did:

$ adb push wallpaperNook.png /system/media
$ adb shell
# mount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /system
# cp /system/media/wallpaperNook.png /system/media/SleepImageNook/1.png
# reboot

But now I have no idea how to even get out of the Neo Noogie page or out of recovery. I was following directions on post #535 by jvscholz, but I have yet to find a way out of Neo Noogie. I am probably forgetting something quite apparent but I haven't been able to find a way out for the past few hours. Running the command:

"# update-binary 2 1 /data/media/0/update.zip"

leaves me with:

"Unable to open '/data/media/0/update.zip': No such file or directory
failed to map package /data/media/0/update.zip"

even though I had previously downloaded it following the quote on post #535.

If you could yet again provide me with any help, I would be greatly appreciative as I am at a standstill
